Calibre update 0.8.3

Gardenman · 05-31-2011, 12:04 PM

I have never posted to the Calibre forum before. Sorry if this is not the right place to put this.

I just installed Calibre update 0.8.3. I cannot now start Calibre. When I click on the desktop icon I get the following message -- Failed to import site module - no module named site(Error code: 1)

I have used Calibre for almost a year. I have installed all of the updates. I have never had any problems.

Thanks for any advice anyone can give

Delete the prior download of 8.3
Common install problems causes: Anti-virus, Download managers.

Un-install Calibre (your library is left intact)
Disable your A/V while you download Calibre from the official site ONLY.
(Use extreme care with Internet and file access while in this condition)
Install
re-enable A/V

Please mention OS (and version) in cries for help
