Conversion error IndexError: list index out of range

trebor6691 · 02-19-2014, 07:26 PM

I've seen this referenced a few times on older threads, but no resolution. I have a single epub that will not convert to mobi. It opens fine as an epub, and will convert to azw3 or as a new epub, but will not convert to mobi (old or both) from the epub or azw3. As for versioning, I just updated to 1.24 64bit. I have converted thousands of books with no problems and reconverted to update mobi versions, so not new to conversions. I tested other books after getting this error, and they worked fine. I removed the problem book, added it again, tried it in a different library, etc. Always the same error which follows:

Spoiler:

Ideas?

Whilst you're waiting for the experts - you could try opening epub in the Editor and run some of the Tools over it - eg Fix HTML, Check book, remove unused styles, fonts etc

Make sure you have a back up before doing that

That epub file has an invalid viewbox attribute on one of its svg images, which is causing the problem. If you opena bug report and attach the file, I will add some code to workaround/ignore invalid viewboxes in the future.

Well, I decided to just implement the fix anyway, without waiting for the file: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...4c434d77e29002
