Error message for dummy.zip file?

itimpi · 06-24-2011, 01:15 PM

I am getting a strange error when I try to queue an individual book for an HTML->EPUB conversion:

Spoiler:

If I use the bulk convert option to queue the book it works just fine! I only seem to get this error when the source is a HTML (ZIP) file. Any ideas?

I am actually running from the latest source downloaded about an hour ago so it is more recent than the 0.8.6 release in case that matters. The file mentioned does not exist in the Calibre binaries folder but the ZIP file I am trying to convert does.

Fix committed, update your source again and you should be fine.

Thanks - glad it was not me being stupid

Edit: Just grabbed the latest source - and noticed that it said I was now running 0.8.7 and that there was an update to 0.8.6!

Yeah, that happens if you update from source while the next release is being built.
