OpenGL not found error 5.5 on macOS Big Sur
I don't see a way to file an issue ticket on Github, so I hope this will do.
I've run up against an issue that may have to do with changes Apple made to the location (or absence) of OpenGL frameworks on macOS 11 (Big Sur). Calibre 5.5 was fine until I activated its web server. Now launch does not complete. The splash screen appears, then the app stops trying to load. I then launched it from the terminal with the debug option to see what I could learn. The final line in the terminal before stopping is "FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory." I am attaching that terminal session here. In the system logs, there are these three Calibre-related lines at the same time: Nov 23 13:54:19 My-Server-Name com.apple.xpc.launchd[1]: Coalition Cache Hit: app<application.net.kovidgoyal.calibre.12930261220 .12930261347(501)> [856] Nov 23 13:54:26 My-Server-Name calibre[816]: getattrlist failed for /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelHD5000GraphicsGLDriver.bundle/Contents/MacOS/AppleIntelHD5000GraphicsGLDriver: #2: No such file or directory Nov 23 13:54:26 My-Server-Name calibre[816]: getattrlist failed for /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenGL.framework/Resources//GLRendererFloat.bundle/GLRendererFloat: #2: No such file or directory A quick Google search for relevant terms turns up many other projects running up against this problem. This discussion here seems relevant and enlightening: https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/2208 I hope this is helpful. Thanks for the project and all the hard work over the years. |

That GitHub link is not what you want. Big Sur was not released in 2019.

This doesnt have anything to do with OpenGL which neither calibre nor the calibre server use. This looks like an issue with something on your computer deleting the socket calibre uses to communicate with its worker processes. Probably a security program, which was triggerred by the starting of the webserver. Security programs often think servers are malware, since plebians are supposed to only consume content, not serve it.

Just to follow up, I am still having this problem. There are no antivirus or security applications running or installed. No firewall, no anti-malware, nothing. I've completely removed Calibre as far as I can tell. Is there more than the Calibre app to delete? I didn't find anything else. I reinstalled it using the latest version, 5.7.2. I've moved the books and database so it should be starting from scratch and not trying to load them. Yet, consistently it gives me these lines in the system log not long after start.

One step further: if I change
"autolaunch_server": true to "autolaunch_server": false in /Users/username/Library/Preferences/calibre/gui.py.json Then Calibre starts just fine. So it's something to do with the book server. |

The server most definitely doesnt use OopenGL.
