Catalog Error: Error reading catalog data. Please try again later.
Hi all,

Just trying Stanza/Calibre/iphone for the first time and running into some problems with the content server. I've set up a new stanza catalog entry on my iphone, pointing to the Calibre content server using

http://192.168.1.102:8080/stanza/

When I connect I get a familiar list "By Author; By Title; By Newest"
But clicking on any of these gives the same error: "Catalog Error: Error reading catalog data. Please try again later."

Content server testing on Calibre works fine: I get a web page showing the two test books in my Calibre library.

Any ideas? My PC OS is Ubuntu Jaunty. My iphone is 2g OS 3.0. My wifi router has WPA/WPA2 security. Here are the relevant lines from my Access log:

Yes. In fact, I can download them to my iphone and view them in stanza by adding

http://192.168.1.102:8080/

as a "web page" catalog. I just can't access them through the stanza catalog.

Having the same challenge here (vista, not ubuntu though). I tried reinstalling the previous 2 versions of Stanza on the ipod just in case the issue was with Stanza but no joy... rolled back to 6.7 and the catalog is working fine.

Hmm works for me with Stanza 1.9.1 though on OS/2.2.1

OK with the server running in one terminal, run the follwoing in another terminal and post the output

Code:
calibre-debug -c "from calibre import browser; br = browser(); print br.open('http://localhost:8080/stanza/?sortby=bytitle').read()"

OK, I'm going to play my 'free dumb question for the day' card. I've noticed that some stanza users need to set up their catalog as "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/stanza/" rather than just "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/". Since there's now a breakdown by author/title/newest is there anything additional to put in the catalog setup?

Hmm nothing wrong with that feed as far as I can tell. And I updated my iTouch to OS 3.0, still works for me. I wish there was some way to get Stanza to give more verbose error messages.

You actually shouldn't need to setup a catalog at all. Stanza should auto detect the calibre server. But if you are setting up a catalog, try both with /stanza and without

You got me thinking about stanza output. For comparison, I opened a location in Stanza desktop under from a 6.8 instance and a 6.7 instance on a different box. Output is attached in case it helps to see the feed.

They are different, as in 0.6.8 calibre now exports sub catalogs so you can go By Newest, By title etc.
