To continue this thread, I'm also encountering this issue after upgrading to the latest Calibre version.

Calibre 0.5.5
Macbook OSX 10.5.6
prs-505

Following is the stack trace

It seems that this is the same issue as the one encountered by XenoPhage and were said to be fixed in previous build ... Do I have a messed up installation ?

[kovidgoyal]

Is this only with CBR or CBZ as well?

It's for both CBR and CBZ files.

Strange, and you can convert non comic files correctly? Can you view files by clicking on the view button?

Tested from command line, html2lrf and pdf2lrf both work fine.

Tested from both command line and GUI, lrfview works fine.

comic2lrf, comic2epub, comic2pdf, comic2mobi all fail when run from the command line processing CBR/CBZ. The error is as indicated in the post above.

Edit: I tried the comic conversion from the Calibre GUI and it works. So for my case, it fails only when comic2lrf is called from the command line.

Open a ticket with subject line

"Conversion of comics fails on OS X when run from CLI"

[frikk]

I get this too... both in command line and in GUI.
