As I wrote, there is no metadata file in the location

Thanks
First backup what you have
  • Create a new library, leave it empty and close calibre.
  • Copy the metadata.db file from the new library to the one where no such file exists.
  • Start calibre and switch to the folder into which you just copied the empty metadata.db
  • Use the Library maintenance->Restore database tool, it may take a while.
