Editing TOC get ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''

davidhcje · 03-10-2021, 04:14 AM

When I add an entry in editing ToC, an error message pops up:

ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''
This only happens to a specific epub book, which is in the attachment.

I'm using the latest version, v5.13 x64, on windows 10.

Could anyone help?

How did you try to change the ToC, by using the ToC editing tool or manually? If you were using the tool, which option were you using, a screen shot might help.

Hmm that's an odd error message. Opena bug report and attach the file there, I will see if I can reproduce on a windows system. It doesnt hapen for me on linux.

Kovid - Didn't happen for me on Windows - mind you I only used a couple of options.

Hmm the only way i can think of for that error to happen is if the worker process that shows that dialog is killed or crashes. Maybe an aggressive A/V??

I used ToC editing tool to add new entry. All three options to add new entry led to this error.

Kovid is on R&R for a few days.

But it works for me, viz:

My Setup

Calibre 5.13
Windows 10 Pro, Version: 20H2, OS build: 19042.867
Security: AV etc: MS Defender; Firewall:Microsoft; Malwarebytes 4.3.0

Try disabling your AV software or adding calibre to its exclusion list.

I use Norton. But adding calibre-parallel.exe in the whitelist of Norton didn't help.

This seems like a python error, which reminds me of a similar error occured in an another Python-related software, QGIS.
Weeks ago I changed my user folder name. Although I followed a microsoft tutorial to do that, when I ran QGIS later, a Python error occurred, as shown in the image below:

This error in QGIS was solved by creating a new user account in QGIS. I don't know if that error resemble to the one I encountered in Calibre.

I don't think renaming the user folder is the case though, since I just tried on another 2 PCs, and the problem persisted.
Another possible reason I could think of is that I put my library in OneDrive. Could that be the cause?

kovidgoyal · 03-14-2021, 10:32 AM

Yes, that is most likely the cause. See https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq...rked-drive-nas

Great! I closed OneDrive temporarily, then edited the TOC and it worked.
