calibre-server: no library

produnis · 06-24-2017, 06:03 AM

Hi there, Im running calibre-server 3.0 on archlinux
I tried to start the server using:

calibre-server --port 8001 /path/to/my/flibraryfolder/

If I open the webpage, it says:
"Select library...."
without any other options or possibilities to select a library from a dropdownmenu or something else...

If I start the server without path to my library, it prompts: "no library found" and exits.

So, the path seems to be correct, but somehow no entries are shown. Instead, there is this "Select library...." message on the webpage

What am I missing?

greetings from Germany
Joe

Update to 3.1 or remove the trailing slash from the library path

thx for your reply,
I removed the tailing slash, giving

calibre-server --port 8001 /path/to/my/flibraryfolder

but still no library on the webpage...

calibre 3.1 is not in my repo....

Just wait a couple of days, Arch is usually fairly prompt about updating calibre.

I removed my arch-repo-version of calibre and installed the binary manually, as stated on the calibre-webpage.
No everything works.

thx
