Database full (?) error message

sockfish · 06-10-2012, 05:21 AM

Hi all, hopefully somebody can help. I have just loaded a large number of books (4000+) into my Library. I went to edit the Metadata on one of the books and got this message:-

calibre, version 0.8.55

Any ideas anyone? The database is on a network drive and there is plenty of free space.

This will likely be some errir in the underlying network filesystem. Move it off the networked drive and the error will go away.

Hi there. Thanks for the reply. I actually got it wrong - the database is on my c: drive but the books are on a network drive. In any event, I closed and reopened Calibre and it looks ok now. Thanks again. Great software by the way!
