Another was to get more detailed debug output is to run the import from the command line as

calibredb.exe add "C:\path to the\html\file.html"

Or you could just opena ticket and attach the html file in question
Last night I decided to zip the file before I uploaded it to Calibre and it worked perfectly.

It also converted to LRF without problems. However, I am curious to see why I had to zip the file first in order for Calibre to import it so I'll do as you suggested with the debugging.
