Full text search prevents transfer of DB from one HDD to another.
When I try to copy my database from one external drive to another, I get Error 0x80070021:
The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file. Full-text-search. Db size: 28.1 GB Try again Skip Cancel The Full Text page says 41831 of 100988 book files 41% have been indexed. However, the calibre main page shows [92850 books, 1 selected] |

Perhaps copying, syncing and/or backing up files while calibre is not running might be a better idea?
Also possible if you have multiple formats, FTS is seeing each format as a separate book while calibre sees multiple formats as a single book? |

After closing Calibre, sometimes the indexer may keep running until it's done the current book. I've noticed this mostly on big PDF files.
Just wait a bit if that;s the case. |

Thank you both.
I completely closed down calibre until indexing was done and had no more problems. And yes, I do have multiple file types and large pdfs. I had reverted to calibre v.4.something or other so as you may imagine I now I feel I am back to total rookie status. ![]() |
