Clifford B Brown Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 They show an option on the Github page for "--security-opt seccomp=unconfined" that fixes this on the docker image.

PureLoneWolf Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 That doesn't want to work for me unfortunately. With that option set, I just get "Refused to connect" responses in the browser Quote Link to comment
musicking Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 The fix worked for me, thank you! Quote Link to comment
hansolo77 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I'm cautious to apply that fix. Without reading the details, it appears to be a flag to disable some type of security, which is never a good thing. Can anybody confirm this is a safe thing to do? I'll stick to the roll back until I hear otherwise.

PureLoneWolf Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Just to re-visit this one as I saw a new update pushed to docker hub, which just immediately gave me a "Refused to connect" once applied.  I have attached my docker config, just for a sanity check against others that got it working.  For interest, I added the "--security-opt" parameter to my working 6.4.0 install and it still works perfectly.  However, when I go to the latest version, I just get a "Refused to connect error".  I am on the latest Unraid Stable Version: 6.11.0  If anyone has any ideas, it would be appreciated   Quote Link to comment
myHarries Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 --security-opt seccomp=unconfined OK, this fixed my installation, however, can someone tell me what the fix is doing? Thanks 2 Quote Link to comment

Thanks On the github page, this is additional comment on this parameter: "For Docker Engine only, many modern gui apps need this to function as syscalls are unkown to Docker."  I am assuming this is an internal check within the server, but I am no expert. Maybe others here that are more sophisticated than I am can elaborate.

sunsout Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) Hello all - butting into the conversation with a different issue. If this doesn't belong here please let me know:  Recently migrated my library over to linuxserver calibre and have had no issues accessing it/installing. Where I'm running into problems is in emailing books. Whenever I email an ebook, the filename gets changed to a random string of letters/numbers (ex: "The High Performance HMI Handbook.epub" becomes "pP2K6OsDdr7hhS523zeDw9.epub"). This causes issues as a Kindle device will then use the random letters/numbers as the display title (I don't know why they don't just use the metadata...).  On calibre instances installed on my laptop with similar setup I have no issues with this. I also do not have any metadata plugboards setup that would alter the info. Sending via gmai imap.  I could not find any topics/instances of this on the calibre support page so I turned here for a possible solution. Any help/ideas is appreciated!  edit: Forgot to mention that every time an email is sent (of same file), the sent filename is a completely different string of letters/numbers, it is not consistent. Edited September 30, 2022 by sunsout additional information Quote Link to comment
tetrapod Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Confirming having same problem and the --security-opt seccomp=unconfined fixed it for me also. Thank you Quote Link to comment

For upload, download, mailing etc. I use the Calibre-Web container from the Unraid Apps page as a wrapper for Calibre. Easier to handle and a better overview of what it does. Especially when I try explaining it to my family. I do not have the problem you are describing when emailing books to my Kindle from the Calibre-Web server. Hope that can be of help to you.  I still dont have a good work flow when it comes to how my media server works for eboks and audio books. I'm using Readarr, Calibre and Calibre-Web at the moment and if anyone know a good forum for discussing this I'm all ears Quote Link to comment
sunsout Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) Correct I'm running it on an Unraid server. I checked out the calibre-web and it is definitely a modern UI comparatively, my only complaint is not being able to support multiple libraries/database switching.  I did much more digging last night and found the answer in the first place I should have looked...very well documented bug fixes on Calibre's page.  Release 6.5 purposely alters the filename Quote When sending books by email to the Kindle and PocketBook email delivery services use random subject and filenames consisting of simple English letters to try to workaround various bugs in their email processing code Closes tickets: 1989282  Release 6.6.1 addresses Amazon's sudden change to no metadata reading Quote Workaround for Amazon's email delivery service not reading metadata from inside ebook files   Edit: Just checked and as of 5 minutes ago 6.6.1 was published and it solves the problem. You guys are impressively fast. Edited September 30, 2022 by sunsout Updated Information: Quote Link to comment
wizzy Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I'm still struggling with Calibre. Running Unraid 6.11. Version 6.4.0 works fine, anything newer fails. I've added the reference optional parameter with no luck. The log file doesn't have much in it: Quote -------------------------------------      _     ()      | |  ___  _   __      | | / __| | |  /  \      | | \__ \ | | | () |      |_| |___/ |_|  \__/ Brought to you by linuxserver.io ------------------------------------- To support LSIO projects visit: https://www.linuxserver.io/donate/ ------------------------------------- GID/UID ------------------------------------- User uid:   99 User gid:   100 ------------------------------------- Generating 2048 bit rsa key... ssl_gen_key_xrdp1 ok saving to rsakeys.ini **** No auth enabled.

PureLoneWolf Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 I was messing around, trying to get it going, and realised that there are some major differences in the logs after 6.4 starts and after the latest version starts. I also realised that I had never posted either of them. Sorry about that.  Here they are Calibre-64-Log.txt Calibre-66-Log.txt Quote Link to comment
wizzy Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) Some more data points on the Calibre challenge. I've attached the output of "ps" from 6.4 (which works) and 6.6 (which doesn't). Can clearly see that calibre isn't running on 6.6.  (6.6 on top, 6.4 on bottom)  Running Unraid 6.11.0.  Edited October 4, 2022 by wizzy Quote Link to comment

wizzy Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 The most recent docker image update fixed my issues with calibre. I'm able to run "latest" and not stuck on 6.4. No change beyond updating the image. Quote Link to comment

I wish that was true for me - After reading this I went through and updated, checked with and without the security option - Same results as in my previous log files - It doesn't get to "listening" - Went back to 6.4.0 - Works instantly Quote Link to comment

hansolo77 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I haven't run the docker since this mess with the security happened. I just tried running it and didn't come across any issues. However, it indicates I'm running v6.6 and that v6.8 is available. According to Unraid though, I'm on the latest version, which is inaccurate.  Quote Link to comment

Fingers crossed it stays that way now It was a lovely 11 days..  Updated to 6.9.0 this morning - Immediately met with Connection Refused. Logs show as before, it doesn't get to the "Listening" stage. Tried with and without the --security option.  Back to 6.8.0 and it's fine - My Unraid is up to date 6.11.5 if that helps.  Would anyone have a solution?

tknx Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 My docker just shows either a white or black screen and no calibre interface. I tried deleting appdata/calibre and reinstalling from scratch without luck. Â Tried private tabs and both chrome and firefox. Anyone have any thoughts? Quote Link to comment
tknx Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Ok doing the extra setting worked, should just update the docker to include it i suppose. Â Also I am getting an error on the version update: Quote Link to comment
