Setting environment variable

dator · 08-24-2018, 05:12 AM

Hello again,

I can't figure out how to configure calibre server to read configuration files from folder not located in ~/.config/calibre (permission issues)

I read manual below but still don't know what to do

Code:

What config files? The server has no config files, all config is done via command line options. If you mean general calibre config files, they can be pointed to via CALIBRE_CONFIG_DIRECTORY as documented in the manual.

Please, can we remove this topic as I gave up on setting those variable and set up calibre server from scratch.

Many thanks for your patience and time.
