calibredb add: IndexError: list index out of range

[sws]

Hi,

I try to add some ebook from a directory recursively into calibre-server as I have done many times before. But today I get this error:

calibredb add -1 -r pre_calibre/
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "site.py", line 63, in main
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/cli.py", line 1554, in main
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/cli.py", line 421, in command_add
  File "site-packages/calibre/library/cli.py", line 302, in do_add
  File "site-packages/calibre/db/legacy.py", line 259, in recursive_import
  File "site-packages/calibre/db/adding.py", line 105, in recursive_import
  File "site-packages/calibre/db/adding.py", line 85, in import_book_directory
IndexError: list index out of range

When I try to add a single book/file it works but adding books/files from within directories using the "-r" option doesn't.

I searched the forum but didn't find an suitable answer.
I am runnig calibre version 2.22.

Regards,
Sebastian

Hi Kovid,

thanks for the link. But I installed the binary standard installation. I can not find the file "adding.py". Do I have to download the sources, change them accordingly and install manually afterwards?
