Can anyone replicate this error or solve it?

I downloaded one of your books and it appears to be a copyright book which should not be made publicly available.

Otherwise, the book has multiple errors including // in the stylesheet which appears to have been an effort to comment out text-align: justify lines and multiple other errors such as an alt="image" in the svg cover image wrapper, the cover being supplied by a cover.xml (it must be htm, html or xhtml).

Calibre's check popped up enought errors to choke the proverbial horse and epubcheck came up with even more.

I would suggest installing the epubcheck plugin for the calibre editor and correcting those errors before trying to edit the TOC.

Thanks. I removed all errors using your method, but no avail. I re-uploaded a cleaned version of that book, just debugging purpose. And I'll delete it later.

It seems from the error code that the related codes locate here:

• https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...ls/lock.py#L85
• https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...ns/toc_edit.py

I don't know Python much though. Does anyone have any idea?

I deleted it for you - please don't post links to works still under copyright in public forums.

I'm lost. I thought it had already been determined that One Drive and/or networked drives in general was the issue here.

Could it be something to do with this ==>> https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...83cea13c04864f

I didn't realise it was a continuing thread.

@davidhcje - I've had to remove your links to copyright protected books twice - in the same thread!!

You're skating on thin ice.

Could be. Not to mention I entirely missed where the OP mentioned the books were not stored on a cloud drive.

The problem is that turning off OneDrive doesn't solve this problem anymore.

Got it. Is it possible to send the link directly to the project developers individually?

Yes. Sorry. I acknowledged my error in my previous post.

Thanks for your remind. I didn't read the guideline earlier. Now I know it.
