Many thanks. I too am having issues with news. Thought it was something I was doing wrong since I'm new to Calibre. But followed instructions in help and Calibre job just runs and runs. The progress shows "waiting" like none of the links are working.

cheers

The bug in this htread isa about automatic scheduling. The manual news download should still be working

I've closed it down and restarted but the scheduled jobs still don't run automatically.

Stupid typo on my part, will be fixed in next release.

That's great, thanks.

OK, I ran into a serious problem today.
I schedule regular downloads of the a few newspapers per day, and magazines for today (Monday). It downloaded the lot (newspapers and magazines) over and over and over...

kovidgoyal · 02-01-2009, 08:21 PM

How did you do the scheduling? With a daily interval or with a time of day?

Newspapers: time interval + time of day
Magazines: time of day (Monday)

And they're all redownloading? What happens if you restart calibre?

When I restarted calibre no further downloads occured. But that was hours later..

kovidgoyal · 02-01-2009, 09:48 PM

And were *all* your scheduled downloads being repeated?

Yes, all scheduled downloads were being repeated - everything.

Hmm, cant think of why that might be happening. I have made one change that might prevent this it will be in 0.4.134. It would help if you ran calibre as

Code:

calibre-debug -g

and posted any output in the terminal after this happens.

Happened again this morning, didn't capture the debug, sorry. On the upside the network was down so it produced 114 empty files. I'm running 0.4.134.

Hmm start calibre as

calibre-debug -g 2>&1 > log

That way all output will be automatically logged so that if/when it happens again, you can easily capture the log.
