Qnap Calibre

QPKG Files are typically Zipped – Unzip First! Most QPKG files online have been zipped, but the QNAP NAS cannot handle this, you MUST UNZIP the file FIRST and upload the UNZIPPED file!Packages can be found through your QNAP web interface (“GET QPKG” button in screenshots below), and for example on the QNAP Appliances Page and in the QNAP Support Forum.

Noob here but I'm learning pretty quickly. I've just installed lazylibrarian-calibre on my QNAP server using Container Station. I followed directions to set-up a dedicated dockuser and included those puids and pgids as part of the set-up. However, I'm still getting these permission related errors. Any help would be greatly appreciated. After updating calibre-web online, the calibre-web is no longer available from my Qnap Docker. INFO Launching Calibre-Web. Traceback (most recent call last).

Calibre

calibre is not exactly the program that will win a beauty contest, but functionally it is ok.

My library is pretty large, and keeping it entirely on my laptop is not reasonable. This led to the necessity of storing the library on a file server, and accessing it from my laptop.

The calibre FAQ page clearly states:

Do not put your calibre library on a networked drive. … bad things will happen.

Qnap

Well, I tested this myself and with AFP shares, bad things did happen :-(

But, with a little help from my friends (thank you, Bogdan!), I migrated the calibre library to a NFS share, and had no problems since.

NFS stands Network File System and is the venerable protocol protocol used by Unix. It might not be very efficient, but was designed with many great features, including exhaustive locking mechanisms, which the newer protocols compromise for speed.

I tried with two NFS servers, one on a Synology drive (Linux based), and the second on a Mac OS X Server (originally a BSD variant), and both worked without problems.
