Is this normal/expected, or does this suggest a problem?

I only installed Firefox as a means for trying to get FFF to work and the only plugin is WebtoEpub, and that was only about a month ago now. So if any sort of corruption has creeped in, it happened really fast.
WebToEpub shouldn't cause any issue. The cache path you should be using is the one for the profile in use, so what you have should be the correct one. It is also perfectly acceptable to have more than one profile - you just can only use one of them at a time.

Got to ask JimmXinu a question before I make my next suggestion to try.


JimmXinu,

I understand that the personal.ini settings for the plugin version of FFF are stored within the Calibre library database. If I delete the FFF plugin from a Calibre installation, are all the FFF settings data left in the library database (and thus going to affect a reinstallation of the plugin), or are they removed along with the plugin? If I export the contents of my library and import them to a new library, do the old FFF settings from the prior library database go along with the export/import of files to the new library?

The reason I am asking is that I'm trying to figure out a way to create a new library that I can ensure doesn't inherit any of the FFF personal.ini settings from an existing library for troubleshooting purposes.

I have a test installation on a Windows virtual machine that is randomly failing exactly like Philosophize is describing when using the browser cache in Firefox. I managed to get it working today, but nothing I did should have caused it to start working so I'm wondering if there might be some kind of corruption in the part of the Calibre library containing the FFF settings. The next time it fails, I'll run the cache log version of FFF you provided and save the log along with the zipped cache folder and personal.ini settings file to check over.
