calibre plugin just copy everything

Hi Everybody,

after living without an calibre server for some time on my omv i decided to give it second try.

Just installed the plugin, setup the data and import DIR on the web interface and pressed appy for the changes.
But instead of just starting the calibre server the plugin starte to copy everthing from the NAS to the calibre data DIR.
Did some tracking and it seems that the "omv-mkconfig claibre" script is running wild here.

So the Question is how to just start the calibre server without cp -r everything to the calibre dir first ...

Any Hints ?

kind regards

thx for the quick answer.

If calibre would only copy the books from the Import Dir this would be fine, but ibstaed it copy the hole NAS Dir structure ( pics, movies, src code etc.)to the CALIBE DIR !
I did not even hit the import button, just the apply after "Enable" the calibre server !

Here is the output from the " apply changes" when I kill manually the "cp" task via shell.

Error
#4000:

Looks to me that "omv-mkconf calibre" is the one.

Any further hints ?

okay here what I did:

Made new shares
/md0/calibri for calibre data
/md0/public/ebooks for import

still the same result

of course did that as you mentoined it befor. cleanly uninstalled. then installed it again via the web interface and same thing happend.

let say i have these three shares:
/md0/calibri for calibre data
/md0/public/ebooks for import
/mdo/public for all the other stuff and in public we have
DIR1
DIR2
DIR3
etc pp.

when installing and enabling the calibre plugin the "cp" command will start and copies everything form "/md0/pulic/" into "/mdo/calibre"
So after that i have a not needed Backup in my calibre DIR and the calibre server still will not start.

I did not even hit the import books botton yet ! just enable the calibre server and the magic will take place.

any further hints ?

cheers

You are right the passwd pointed to Public and not /home/calibre.
Should have found that by myself!

Great work thank you very much.

cheers
