mobi/writer2/indexer.py bug

nickredding · 09-02-2011, 05:01 PM

I'm getting the following traceback with a large recipe (New York Times Web)

Code:

Failed to generate MOBI index:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Nick\calibre\src\calibre\ebooks\mobi\writer2\main.py", line 107, in generate_index
  File "C:\Users\Nick\calibre\src\calibre\ebooks\mobi\writer2\indexer.py", line 500, in __init__
  File "C:\Users\Nick\calibre\src\calibre\ebooks\mobi\writer2\indexer.py", line 52, in __init__
AttributeError: 'CNCX' object has no attribute '_ctoc'

That line 52 in the CNCX __init__ method is

Code:

                pad = 0xfbf8 - self._ctoc.tell()

which I believe should actually read

Code:

                pad = 0xfbf8 - buf.tell()

I tested the change and it works.

Having same problem with NYTimes. mobi version for Kindle
Have found your revised indexer.py, revised on 9-2-11
Would like to replace existing indexer.py but can't find it anywhere on my system. There is no src folder in the Calibre2 directory.

There error message I get does not refer as Nick's does to any User or AppData directories etc, but rather to "site-packages". I have no idea where to look. Have done multiple searches to no avail. Are some of these scripts online rather than local?
My OS is Windows7 sp2 64bit, Calibre2 directory is in ProgramFiles(x86)
Calibre is 8.17

Here is the tale end of the job details for the NYTimes (Paper edition, not web, 14.9mb), downloaded Sunday around 10:00 am.
BTW, all other recipes and downloads seem to work just fine.
