After encountering this issue myself
and finding the same thing occuring:
calibre, version 5.38.0
ERROR: Render process crashed: The Qt WebEngine Render process has crashed. You should try restarting the viewer.

$ ldd /opt/calibre/lib/libQt5WebEngine.so.5 | grep found
libiconv.so.2 => not found
even though as can be seen, it definitely exists
$ ls /opt/calibre/lib/libiconv.so.2
/opt/calibre/lib/libiconv.so.2*

I did some digging, and found a workaround

QTWEBENGINE_DISABLE_SANDBOX=1 ebook-viewer
Allows the calibre ebook-viewer to launch and work sucessfully

Does this help in pinpointing the actual cause of the error (and an actual solution for it) ?
