error message 3.41.2 (and after update epub plugins)

franklekens · 04-22-2019, 05:57 AM

I get this error message now when I try to add a book to the reader:

calibre, version 3.41.2
ERROR: Error: Error communicating with device

'bool' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 89, in run
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\device.py", line 593, in _upload_books
File "calibre_plugins.kobotouch_extended.device.driver" , line 395, in upload_books
File "site-packages\calibre\devices\kobo\driver.py", line 2087, in upload_books
File "calibre_plugins.kobotouch_extended.device.driver" , line 298, in _modify_epub
File "ntpath.py", line 289, in expanduser
TypeError: 'bool' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

Haven't a clue where I should start looking to remedy this.

Try 3.41.3

That's an error in the kobo touch extended driver third party plugin -- try posting in that plugins thread.

Okay, thanks. I've switched to the current driver until that is solved, and that helps. (And maybe it's better this way anyway.)
