Non-unique Library IDs is a error in Calibre. So, perhaps it belongs in the main Calibre forum, if not the Library Management subforum.


BTW, Calibre Links do not work (for me at least) when there are multiple libraries with the identical libary_id UUID, since the link points to many separate libraries. That is why I referenced your Library Management and Launchpad posts.

My initial thought was Library Management, then the main Calibre forum, but I settled on Development on the toss of a mental coin

I checked the library_id values of my 8 libraries, there are no duplicate values. I have never needed to copy a Library, they were all created via the Create/switch library dialogue.

I found a 'solution' to my show-books links working/not-working. Out of frustration, at the thought of editing 1800+ link values in Manage Authors… again, I tried pasting an edited list of values into the authors.link column via SQLite Browser

Not only did it work, it seems to have fixed the problem Which might suggest my problem was somehow related to Manage Authors - but I can't fathom how.

Kovid has made a couple of changes:

Windows: Fix the case of library names in copied calibre:// links

Make testing for calibre:// matching current db more robust

Not sure what the second one is, it may relate to your issue.
