"Calibre database directory (DB_ROOT) is not configured"

[wtrdk]

Hi,

When I run /usr/bin/python /opt/calibre-web/cps.py from my home dir I get this error:
Calibre database directory (DB_ROOT) is not configured

When I run /usr/bin/python /opt/calibre-web/cps.py from /opt/calibre-web/ it runs perfectly!

I want to use the command to start the calibre-web instance at boot, but when I add it to crontab I get that same error message.

Can you help me?

As a quick workaround I recommend adding:
cd /opt/calibre-web/ && /usr/bin/python cps.py
In crontab, this should help

Thanks, that works for now!

I created a pull request #48 solving the issue.

Hi,

I dit a git pull, but no changes. Maybe it's not committed yet?

[OzzieIsaacs]

I have no write rights to the repro. So I created a pull request, but until it is merged by @janeczku you won't see it.

[wtrdk]

Ah, oke. Thanks a lot!

#48 is merged. @wtrdk can this issue be closed?

[wtrdk]

Yes, it can be closed. Thanks!
