So - tried the same thing - new folder in Windows, used a Linux Calibre to create a catalog - got the failure msg. Closed Linux calibre, Opened the catalog with Win Calibre, added some books, closed Win Calibre. Back to Linux Calibre - got the same error when I tried to open the catalog.

All of these calibres are version 8.4.
The Linux calibres were created with the one line download from the calibre download page.
Linux Mint 22.1 Mate is the one that worked after adding books from Windows Calibre.
Linux Cinnamon 22.1 didn't work.
Linux MX 23.5 didn't work.
It's late. going to turn in. 10 more distros to beat against tomorrow.
