App won`t launch - Calibre v. 0.4.92

Matridom · 10-07-2008, 08:50 AM

I just updated to the newest version and now the application won`t launch. I had upgraded from 0.4.85. I`ve tried going back to the older version, still no luck.

When running the debug command, i get the following error:

Code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "debug.py", line 10, in <module>
  File "calibre\__init__.pyo", line 12, in <module>
  File "calibre\startup.pyo", line 17, in <module>
  File "calibre\utils\config.pyo", line 508, in <module>
  File "calibre\utils\config.pyo", line 482, in __init__
EOFError

Look for and delete the file global.py

Found it in my user profile.. Deleting the file did not correct the issue, however deleting the entire folder allowed for the app to run wishing to select a folder for the database.. Won`t let me use the old database folder (i guess there is corrupt data there). I just made a new folder and all is good now. thanks for the help.
