Problem after the installation of calibre 1.7.0

Ptitprince · 10-19-2013, 10:41 AM

Hello,

I have a strange problem following the update towards 1.7.0 (see attachments). This message appears with the starting of calibre. The message is in french and say : ERROR : wrong place of the database. If one looks at the name registered in the way, “\xe8” replaced the character “è”. Perhaps do I have make a fault in my translation of calibre on launchpad??? If it is the case all my apologies !!!
If I return to the previous version of calibre 1.6.0, all is in order.

Any idea?

Ptitprince

Edit : \xe8 is for unicode ???

do you have any non-ASCII characters in the path to:
The Library
Your user folder (for Calibre configuration preferences)

This is the same name of path as before : c:\users\serge\Bibliothèque Calibre. So yes there is a non-ASCII characters in the path. But, as far as I use calibre this path worked. And I think it's the same on all french version, calibre library = bibliothèque calibre.

Thx

That error indicates you have a debug locking tweak turned on. Turn it off and you should be fine. Search your computer for the file tweaks.py and delete it to turn of the tweak.
