Hi,

I've searched and tried and pulled my hair out trying to get calibre working on CentOS. From what I read, it sounds like some people have gotten it to work. I know that it requires python 2.6, however my post isn't really asking how to get it to work, rather I had some other questions regarding it:

1. Can caliber run in command line only with no GUI?
2. Is the binary installer for linux meant to be able to install on systems without the required dependancies? I wasn't able to get it to work on mine, but I wasn't able to get all the dependancies installed either, but from what I gather it looks like the binary installed installs it's own required modules, so I wasn't sure on this one.

If Caliber will not run without a GUI, is it possible to maybe have a simple command line webserver, or a script to create a web page?

What I'm trying to do: I manage my ebooks with calibre on a windows system, and the DB is stored on a NAS. I have several linux web servers on my network, and I'd like to have them serve up the calibre books, so that I can get to it remotely. My windows system is not always on, that's why I don't want to run the server from that machine, but my servers are always on.

I've looked at calibre2web but it only created the XML stuff, no web.. I'm sure it probably could be modified to work for other stuff, that's partly why I'm asking here to see if anyone has.

If anyone knows of any solutions to my problem, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks
