"cannot import name JSONConfig" on launching calibre .42

hakan42 · 02-20-2010, 02:18 AM

Hi,

I just installed .42 on my Windows Vista Box. Over the last few versions, my calibre installation fails to start with an error message box showing

Code:

cannot import name JSONConfig (Error Code: 1)

Does anyone have an idea how to fix or debug this?

Regards,
Hakan

Do you have a calibre development environment setup?

No, on my Windows machine, I just have the normal, user installation from the latest .42 msi file.

Development on calibre is on my Linux box which does not share any calibre files with the Windows box. (By the way, how do I create a windows installer? I did not find anything on the web site)

Well that error indicates it's picking up old code from somewhere.

You can't create a windows installer, at least not easily, the windows build script in calibre is setup to work on my particular windows environment.

, I did indeed have a copy of database2.py in the subdirectories.
