Undecipherable Error Msg

[edbro]

While trying to dl metadata I got the following message that I don't understand:

TypeError:disconnect() failed between 'textChanged' and all its connections

calibre, version 0.8.7
ERROR: Unhandled exception: <b>TypeError</b>:disconnect() failed between 'textChanged' and all its connections

Traceback (most recent call last):

Never mind, I see another post dealing with this.

Did you even look at some of the recent messages that were posted here before starting a new thread?
( Hint to all you newbies: searching thread titles for your exact words only goes so far. Read the body of recent messages with 'error', 'problem' in its subject to see what they contain the same error message as you get.)


This has been reported and well covered in https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=140459
There were changes in this release preparing for a bigger and richer Calibre in the future. There were a few hiccups :/
You can always un-install ( your library remains) and install the previous stable version. Link to older versions (if you did not already keep the previous one) is just below the main download button for your version.
