@ davidfor:
Please find attached the log file of what happens in 1.48 when connecting the H2O.
Then I have installed your plugin driver: it works.
Thanks a lot!
If I will see any issue I will tell you.
@ eschwartz
I didn't know that the official FAQ discourages keeping the library on a networked filesystem. Good to know; I will think about it.
On the other hand I access the library as a single user, from the same OS (well in these days as I wrote I have tested the access from Linux), from the same calibre version 1.48, the NAS (QNAP TS-109 II) firmware is the same and it will not be upgraded. This to say that my home IT infrastructure is not very evolutive, so hardly new things happen.
Launching a rsync from it to the XP laptop where calibre is running and where the local library is? Using cygwin to do it the other way round? After all when I do the periodical backups from the NAS to an external HDD it's a rsync too, and in case of disaster I have the backup.
Finally what might happen? A corruption of the metadata.db file, I suppose. Or would the disaster affect the ebook files too? If it is only the metadata.db file, no big deal: I can re-import the books in calibre.
PS: thanks for the help for the source building of calibre; obviously installing davidfor's plugin was easier for me.
