I can convert without any problems Kindle azw3 files on the command line with Calibre 6.X desktop.

Calibre 6.X desktop runs on another computer then my calibre content server.

I would like to convert these files on the content server without installing the Calibre desktop software.

I have tried to install the DeDRM tools on the content server with following command: calibre-customize --add DeDRM_plugin.zip
There was no error but the .config/calibre/plugins/ was empty. I have copied the files over from my desktop to the content server but still errors when converting.

1% Converting input to HTML...
InputFormatPlugin: MOBI Input running
on /mnt/multimedia/text.azw3
Found KF8 MOBI of type 'standalone'

So is this possible to convert without installing the desktop version ?
