                                  --port $PORT --username $USER --password $PAS$

end script

As far as I can tell from the man pages, that exports nothing. The "env" command seems to set the environment in a subshell. Try deleting all occurences of "env", for example leaving

LIBRARY_PATH='/mnt/synnas/Books/Calibre'

instead of

env LIBRARY_PATH='/mnt/synnas/Books/Calibre'

Then do the export.

Alternatively do

export CALIBRE_OVERRIDE_DATABASE_PATH=/media/cdb/metadata.db
