Server doesn't start after update to 3.27.1 - python libs missing

Lakrimar · 07-08-2018, 06:06 AM

Hello,

I've upgraded my calibre installation on my server to 3.27.1 but when I want to start the server (calibre-server) it complains about missing libraries:

Code:

IOError: [Errno 2] File or Folder not found: '/opt/calibre/lib/python2.7/imgsrc/srv/generate.py'

I cannot find the entire imgsrc folder in /opt/calibre and not in the current and previous (3.27.0) tar file. Is this missing?

It should not be calling generate.py at all. Can you post the full traceback?

Sure

For debugging purposes I started the calibre server in foreground. Normally it is started by system during boot.

Code:

root@server:/opt# LIBRARY_PATH='/srv/calibre-library' && PORT='4711' && /usr/bin/calibre-server --auto-reload --port $PORT $LIBRARY_PATH

That indicates that for some reason it is rebuilding the server data. Are the dates messed up on your system? Try re-installing calibre, that should take care of it.

Oh and dont use --auto-reload that is for development purposes only

I'm trying to upgrade from a previous version (2.85.1). And it is installed on a non gui system. The installations works fine except of a warning that an entry in the user menu cannot be done.

I'll try to reinstall in a complete new folder and --auto-reload is removed from start script now

I deleted the calibre server folder and installed it the manual way as described on the download page. Now it is working fine - thanks a lot
