[BUG] Can't get Calibre to Work past saving db location #266
Comments

few things here
all that said, we do not support your setup and cannot assist further. |
|
A human has marked this issue as invalid, this likely happened because the issue template was not used in the creation of the issue. |
|
Same here, for some reason it seems that upon creation (and I most definitely did use the template as suggested) there is no metadata.db created, which doesn't seem to be isolated to this container, because well, here, janeczku/calibre-web#1828 |
|
Not sure, biggest issue, is very little debug logging. It just doesn't stay running, so you're just guessing reasons. |
|
Well I just tested with the skeleton metadata.db from the official repo and it seems to work, except ofc that database is empty, I feel like I'm either missing something or a metadata.db is supposed to be generated upon container creation and/or startup, which it doesn't, the file doesn't exist nor can it be generated from the webui by the looks of it. |

Calibre-web requires an existing calibre database. This is made clear by both the upstream project and our readme. There is no auto generation of calibre db. Upstream project provides an empty db for you to manually copy if needed, to get you started. These last few comments have nothing to do with the original post. |
Is there an existing issue for this?
Current Behavior
Trying to migrate a docker container from one machine to another.
I've got an existing metadata.db, and app.db. If I let the latest version install with no app.db I do get a login page. But as soon as I give it the metadata.db then the page just never loads.
Is it indexing or something?
I can't see any logs updating, either container logs or the calibre-web.log while all this is occuring.
Expected Behavior
Page should respond.
Steps To Reproduce
Starting blank container with existing metadata.db
Environment
CPU architecture
x86-64
