Can my database really be full?
I can't seem to add any books without getting the following message. Can anyone advise me about what to do?
calibre, version 0.8.49 ERROR: Unhandled exception: <b>DatabaseException</b>:database or disk is full RemoteTraceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\library\sqlite.py", line 271, in run OperationalError: database or disk is full Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\actions\delete.py", line 312, in delete_books File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\library\models.py", line 232, in delete_books_by_id File "site-packages\calibre\library\database2.py", line 1403, in delete_book File "site-packages\calibre\library\sqlite.py", line 314, in run DatabaseException: database or disk is full RemoteTraceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\library\sqlite.py", line 271, in run OperationalError: database or disk is full |

Check the disk space on the hard disk that contains the calibre library.

I've checked and made additional room. There certainly should have been enough space for several new books, but it seems to work now.
Is there a way to setup an additional Calibre library to manage a different database of books and access either when I want? |

Sure. Use the "Switch/Create Library" menu item. (Click the drop-down arrow alongside the library icon on the toolbar). What I do myself, though, is to have my Calibre library on an external USB hard disk.

If you have not done so, run the Windows cleanup program and choose those checks/cleans on temp files (the other choices are yous) |

Where do you put the backups? I was thinking of using an USB hard disk for backup, but using one for the library only would mean much less wear. |

I have another hard disk which I use as a backup. I use the free Microsoft "Synctoy" tool to keep the two drives in sync.
