If you choose an author / serie / tag which only have 2 or 3 books, is it ok ?

Please try to change

.container
{
margin:auto;
width:100%;
max-width:800px;
}

Try to reduce width to 90 or 95%. Thanks in advance.

Hi Vlad,

It is not in the list with authors. This shows perfectly. It shows only when you show a book detail text with a rather large summary. Indeed when showing the scroller bar.

I am a bit at a loss where to find the code you mentioned. In which file can I find that snippet?

P.S. would love it if a SPK will be available. Are you also going to create a repository for that?

Hi Vlad59,

Did some testing and I am running into problems with a WAMP (Windows/Apache/PHP) installation under Win 7.
Did a standard installation, only changed config_local.php for the Calibre directory. Mod_xsendfile is installed.

- ePUBreader a plugin for Firefox works perfectly
- Stanza and Shubook (IOS 6) give problems.

Problemdescription:
Stanza
URL = http://<ip>/cops31/feed/php
Select book source = ok
Authors show
Select author -> Catalog is empty -> pupup ->
Catalog Error
Error reading catalog data, Please try again later
Disabling mod_xsendfile did not solve the problem.

With Linux (Debian Squeeze and Wheezy) this gives no error.
The Calibre files are a direct copy.
The same Calibre files work perfectly with COPS 0.3.0.

Any idea's what is going wrong?

@Northguy

Sorry for the lack of precision. The code you can try to modify is in style.css

For the spk, I won't speak of it before it's out. Afraid of bad luck .

Thanks a lot for updating the Wiki.

@mariosipad

That's strange, but I made some modifications to the OPDS catalog so that might be a true regression. Unfortunately I live in a home without any Apple product so I can't test it myself.

Can you give me the full path of Calibre directory in both cases ? Does the directory in the windows server contains a drive (c: or d ?

What's really strange is that EpubReader is fine ... Did you check Apache log on the Wamp server ?

Thanks in advance.

[Northguy]

@Vlad: will test the .CSS sometime later this week. Please check your private mail for a localization update.

Egards,

Northguy

Hi,

Is there a way to set priorities for formats? I have some books in three formats in Calibre (mobi,epud,pdf). For these books at the main list I have epub and pdf. I'd like to set mobi as preferred format. Is it possible?

You set the Order (and allowed formats) in the Device driver Plugin configuration. Move Mobi before the other formats

@Vlad

To keep it simple. 2 virtually 100% the same setups. Only difference is:
1 - WAMP (X-Sendfile installed)
3 - Apache Linux Debian Wheezy (X-Sendfile installed)

Paths in config_local.php are both: "./Calibre/"

Shubook (Stanza clone IOS 6) error:
Encountered OPDS document syntax error. Tried to recover.

I only get this error with WAMP. Linux works aas expected.

Relevant eror lines from Apache log file could be:

[Sun Jan 27 22:30:11 2013] [error] [client 192.168.1.116] PHP Notice:  Undefined offset: 1 in C:\\wamp\\www\\cops31\\base.php on line 333

If I use http://<IP-WAMPserver>/cops31/feed.php in a browser (Firefox) I get the following error after choosing the first letter of the author:

XML Parsing Error: junk after document element
Location: http://192.168.1.11/cops31/feed.php?page=2&id=S
Line Number 2, Column 1:<font size='1'><table class='xdebug-error xe-notice' dir='ltr' border='1' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='1'>
^

I do not get this error when using either Linux Apache (COPS 0.3.1)or WAMP with COPS 0.3.0.

So the modifications might have introduced the error. But only in Windows?

for COPS!

@Northguy

Yep, I received your mail. I will handle it later this week.

@jj23

Yes you can, you have to alter this config item in you config_local.php :

$config['cops_prefered_format'] = array ("EPUB", "PDF", "MOBI", "CBR", "CBZ");

@mariosipad

I may have found it. Can you try to change line 333 of base.php from

        if (get_class ($this->entryArray [1]) == "EntryBook") return true;

to

        if (get_class ($this->entryArray [0]) == "EntryBook") return true;

[CreaB]

I have tested the new custom-column-function and it works like a charm.

Thanks!

I have changed line 333 of base.php like you suggested.

And it works for WAMP (Windows 7 / Apache) with Stanza and Shubook (IOS6) and with ePUBReader (Firefox).

And it still works for Linux Debian Squeeze with Stanza and Shubook (IOS6) and with ePUBReader (Firefox

for the quick reply and for COPS!

Installation of COPS with WAMP.

I do not know if it is supposed to work or not, but I get a 404 error when I use the line:

$config['calibre_directory'] = 'D:/Calibre/';

in config_local.php when I want to fetch a book/epub.
Error is with fetch.php
[mod_xsendfile is installed]

Solution (if mod_xsendfile is installed):
- put the line

XSendFilePath d:/Calibre

in the (apache) httpd.conf file.
- putting it in the .htaccess file or enabling line

XSendFileAllowAbove on

did not work for me. I got a "Internal Server Error"

Maybe this helps someone to use the Calibre directory on another drive (with WAMP).

[vlad59]

@CreaB

Thanks for the report

@mariosipad

Happy to know that the fix is working for you.

about the path with D:. It should work fine if you don't set X-SendFile :

$config['cops_x_accel_redirect'] = "";

[mariosipad]

@vlad59

You are right.
Path D:/ works with [$config['cops_x_accel_redirect'] = "";].

However if one wants to use (the latest version of) X-Sendfile (for larger files?; PDF's?) he/she has to set XSendFilePath D:/ for COPS with X-Sendfile to work.

Works perfectly. Thank you! You simplified my books-life :-)

[vlad59]

@mariosipad

Thanks for the confirmation. I'll add an note in .htaccess about that case.

@jj23

You're welcome.
