July 11, 20179 yr Hi Mr. Aptalca, Looks like the RDP-Calibre docker is broken. The RDP part does not load. Someone says that v. 3 of Calibre broke the RDP. This is in my top 3 favorite dockers.... Thank, H.
July 11, 20179 yr Author Hi Mr. Aptalca, Looks like the RDP-Calibre docker is broken. The RDP part does not load. Someone says that v. 3 of Calibre broke the RDP. This is in my top 3 favorite dockers.... Thank, H.Works fine here. It wasn't the rdp part that broke, it was the built in server. It is now fixed but you have to enable in the gui settings. Details on docker hub description

July 18, 20179 yr So I'm new to docker, new to unRaid, etc. I was trying to set up RDP-Calibre, but when I try to set my library to /config on first boot in the Calibre wizard in the WebUI, it gives me an error that the folder is not empty and that the library folder must be empty. What am I missing here?
July 18, 20179 yr /config is where the application data is stored rather than the library. I've used a /books folder for my library, like so.

I was trying to do the step in the docker hub instructions that say this: IMPORTANT: On first start, select "/config" as the library location in the Calibre wizard I know you can set up a different path for subsequent boots, but it sounds like I'm supposed to select config as the location for the library for first set up in the wizard (not docker). Is that incorrect?

July 18, 20179 yr No, it has a fonts, metadata_sources, and plugins folder, a pickle file and 2 python files.

July 18, 20179 yr That folder didn't exist before. I let the docker installation create the config directory, and it stuck some files and directories into there. EDIT: Got it working. I guess the newest version creates the config correctly without needing to set the library to /config on first setup. Or maybe because I set the EDGE variable to 1. Either way, it works, and the wireless content server works as well. Thanks for talking me through it and the pointers! Edited July 19, 20179 yr by Eyeheartpie
July 19, 20179 yr Now I'm having another odd problem. Whenever I try to access the calibre web UI, it gets passed the calibre selection dropdown,but then when I actually hit OK, it opens an xclipboard window, and that's it. It never loads the UI and just sits at the xlicpboard window and never loads the UI. Whenever I close the xclipboard window, it just reopens in another place. I tried restarting the docker, but no joy. It was working fine yesterday, and I haven't changed any settings besides activating the wireless content server, which still works. Any ideas?
July 19, 20179 yr Try removing just the container and image, leave the appdata and reinstall, you won't lose your data. Also a browser cache clear/try a different browser.
July 20, 20179 yr I ended up removing the container and image, deleted the appdata, and reinstalled to get it working again. I tried your way and the problem persisted. I must have screwed up something in the config somehow to get it stuck on the xclipboard window.
July 21, 20179 yr I'm reading the instructions... i'm trying to install the calibre-server, it works, but it says to click install, says to put library location and port, but I don't have any box to put the location in... Installing it anyway, running the webui shows me an empty library since i didn't specify where it's located... I have a user share called Calibre where it's located. After adding it as another available share, it's the same deal, I don't see where i can specify to the docker to use THAT location. Any idea what I missed?
July 21, 20179 yr There's an option when you're installing to add another path. That's where you define the host path. You have to click the plus at the bottom of the server config page. You can add it after the fact by going back into the docker config page.

Well I did that, i added my library location there... but where do I specify to the docker that I want to use that path for my library? Or is there a specific container path to use and it'll be automatic?
July 21, 20179 yr You'll see the path like \libraries -> \mnt\users\calibre In Calibre web ui, give it the left side path as your library location, while the right side is your data on unraid. Edited July 21, 20179 yr by Eyeheartpie
July 21, 20179 yr This is what I have in the docker config : This is what i see in the web ui : When I click on All books, I don't see anything, its empty. Notice at the bottom the /config path... well, this one is not editable. It's almost like i'd have to move my library to /mnt/user/appdata/Calibre-server
July 21, 20179 yr Ah. I guess you're using a different version. I'm using the rdp version of Calibre. I'm not sure how to configure that one. Maybe look for a config file in the appdata folder that you can manually edit with your library path?

It looks for the library at /config. Set that to your existing library location. It has to already be set up with calibre prior. Otherwise use the rdp version and create a new library and set it however you like
July 27, 20179 yr HELP, I'm trying to get my USB camera (logitech c270, locally attached to unraid machine) working with Zoneminder. From what it looks like it does not show anything under /dev/video0 becuase I dont have cheese installed? but i cant install cheese because there is no apt-get for unraid, cant install that because there is no dpkg ether. It does show up under usb devices though bus 003 device 009.

It does show up under usb devices though bus 003 device 009.In order to use a device in docker, the host would need to load either the drivers or the kernel modules. I don't believe unraid supports any USB cameras
July 28, 20179 yr Hello Aptalca and thank you very much for your work. Just wondering if you had any plans to update the Digikam Docker? I've been using your 4.9 version but the latest 5.6 version seems really good and would love to run it on my server. Thank you again

I'll look into it
