I'm having issues with highlighting in the calibre viewer.

Most of them work fine however some of the highlights after closing and opening the book again do not appear in the text. However they are still present in the highlight viewer (both in the reader and the annotation browser). If I right click the highlight and select modify, sometimes the following error appears:
Traceback (most recent call last):
at IframeClient.handle_message (userscript:viewer.js:16690:21)
at IframeBoss.annotations_msg_received (userscript:viewer.js:27686:29)
at select_crw (userscript:viewer.js:18505:19)
TypeError: Failed to execute 'setStart' on 'Range': parameter 1 is not of type 'Node'.

Sometimes this error appears:
Error: Highlight text missing
The text associated with this highlight could not be found in the book. This can happen if the book was modified. This highlight will be automatically removed.

Moreover, when I click on some of the highlights it leads to other text in the book.

(Also this is my first post so any tips would be appreciated)
