I had this problem when the TEMP drive in my system was on a RAMdrive. Changing/setting the environment variable CALIBRE_TEMP_DIR to point at a folder on a physical drive resolved the issue.

Have I complained about how much I hate Windows lately? It's been 5 minutes, surely I must have complained about it by now

Been following this thread for a week or so trying to diagnose my issue. I haven't converted anything for maybe a few months, and after updating everything to the latest, something seems to have broke. The log mentions something invalid with the temp folder - I have tried moving it around to different locations with the same error. It also mentions a particular page, but its not consistent between conversion trials. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

This is using Calibre portable. S drive is a physical SSD installed in my PC. As for the type of epub, I'll be honest, I am not super familiar with the types. It is a manga that has the page order going from right to left rather than the traditional left to right. I have converted similar manga epubs in the past without issue, though I end up loosing the right to left page ordering. |

The error is the same as one reported earlier by someone when they pointed their TMP storage to a memory disk. There isn't anything obvious about why it would happen. Or unfortunately about how to fix it. A possibility is that the temporary storage is being cleaned up by something. But, if that was the case, I would expect a different error (a file not found type of error). You could try using the KoboExtendedDriver instead of a conversion. That doesn't have the overhead of the full conversion pipeline. Or, if you have CBZ or CBR versions of the manga, you could try KCC to produce the kepub. As to the page turning direction, that can be set in the OPF or in each file. A conversion should keep it. But, I don't know if it is picked up correctly when imported on the Kobo device. But, it will be respected if it is set. You can set it using my Kobo Utilities plugin. |

I will try to install the 64bit version and see what transpires from that. I find it odd that only now has it begun to have this issue as I have converted other large page count manga epub in the past without issue. I do not know how the original epub has set it, but it does have 385 pages, it looks like it counts each page as its own chapter.... each page should have one image for the entire page. The only reason for the need to convert is that with the epub source file, if I import it directly to the kobo, the pages seemed "zoomed in" and it cuts off about 10% from the bottom and right side of the page, early on, I discovered that converting them to kepub solved the issue. (and prally a topic for a new thread.) I have Kobo Touch Extended Driver is that the same as KoboExtendedDriver you mentioned? And if so, how would I make calibre use it in lieu of kepub output plugin? I appreciate the time and help in assisting me with this problem! |

The extended driver works when you send a book to the device. It doesn't run the full calibre conversion pipeline. It processes the epub and adds the spans needed to the book and sends that copy to the device. And it doesn't add the kepub to the library. When sending a single book, it probably uses less resources than when converting a book. But, the part that adds the spans is exactly the same code, so it might still fail. |

I have tried sending it directly to kobo with a conversion in the process, as well as converting first before sending. Both will error out. I haven't had time to try installing the 64bit version yet, so I'll keep you posted soon (too many life events when all you want to do is sit and read.... ) |

Is there a way to get this working on calibre-server? Apparently putting it in .config/calibre/plugins doesn’t work.

I wanted to suggest using the auto-convert when adding books, but, that won't let me convert to kepubs. |

Sadness. Thanks for the reply though.

I have loaded a Polish hyphenation dictionary on my Kobo, and the plugin has an option to Hyphenate Files that can be selected. Hope someone can confirm:
PS. The default option is to split files larger than 260 KB - any issue if this is increased? I have a book where where one xhtml file is larger than that, and don't want to split it so that chapter page count displays correctly. |

As to which values are used. I don't know. I don't like the way the devices do hyphenation, so I remove the justification from the books and use ragged-right alignment on the device. Quote:
