Bad database location
I installed Calibre without any problem a few days ago. Today when I open it I get an error (I tried upgrading to calibre 0.6.51 but nothing changed):-
Code:
ERROR: Bad database location: Bad database location://DC01/users/My-User-Name/My Documents/E-Books Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\ui.py", line 517, in __init__ File "site-packages\calibre\library\database2.py", line 126, in __init__ File "site-packages\calibre\library\database2.py", line 200, in initialize_dynamic File "site-packages\calibre\library\database2.py", line 221, in last_modified WindowsError: [Error 1816] Not enough quota is available to process this command: '//DC01/users/My-User-Name/My Documents/E-Books\\metadata.db' There are no quotas on the folders and there is 15.4 GB of space available on DC01.

If you don't have a virus or just removed a virus then my money is on this solution working. On the Disk Usage tab, click Change Limits and increase both “Maximum amount of space all offline files can use:” and “Maximum amount of space temporary offline files can use:” and click OK. If that solution or those links don't help Google is your friend. Update: I forgot, by your description of when it happened, I'm 99% sure this is not a Calibre problem. But I've been known to be wrong before. Last edited by DoctorOhh; 05-05-2010 at 06:10 AM. |

Thanks for the prompt reply. This issue has just resolved itself by a reboot. However as I'm not using sync so the off-line files fixes are not relevant, also the virtual memory is running at the MS recommended level so changing that would make no difference to performance. Although I'm happy to hear your assertion that it isn't Calibre, it was the only program to be giving this error and as mentioned there is plenty of space available on the network drive. There could have been something else in the background that had crashed invisibly that was conflicting with Calibre?
