Hi,
I have just upgraded from .6 to .7, and am experiencing some strange issues.
I store my DB and files on a share accessed by UNC. e.g. \\server\ebooks\Iain Banks\Complicity
The books are accessible to Calibre and it can copy them accross to my ebook reader, however hitting "o" or clicking the hyperlink to open the folder fails. I don;t get any error messages, and the program doesn;t hang.. it just doesn't do anything.
I'[ve been running like this for a couple of years without any issues, and it's only since I upgraded that it's occurred. I'm on 0.7.7 and the issue still remains. Does anyone know what the issue is and do you have a workaround.
Thanks,
Adam
