When Calibre thinks book is a duplicate, file is not processed by DeACSM about acsm-calibre-plugin HOT 11 CLOSED

I've just tested that and it's working fine for me.

Do other (non-duplicate) books work for you?

Can you please post a debug log? Right-click the "Preferences" button, choose "Restart in debug mode", then import an ACSM and close Calibre, then post the debug log file that shows up.

Here you go!

Okay, the only error message I can see in that log file is this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "calibre\gui2\auto_add.py", line 283, in do_add
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] Le fichier spécifié est introuvable: 'F:\\Livres à ajouter automatiquement\\l-enfant.acsm'

Now I don't speak french but that sounds like a "File not found" error from Calibre. No idea why that occurs, but it's most likely not caused by my plugin.

Are you adding the file using the "Add books" button or do you use Drag-and-Drop to add the file?

I'm using the watch folder. When I drop a file in there, apparently Calibre checks if there are possible duplicates and ask if I want to proceed if it finds there might be one. When it's an EPUB, no problem, the book appears in my library as expected, but when it's an ACSM the file is moved into its own folder and appears in the library as well, but without being processed by DeACSM, just an ACSM file.
Maybe Calibre moves it first so your plugin can't find it anymore in the watch folder? This would explain the error (FileNotFoundError).

Okay, when I A) use the auto-add folder, and B) I have the "Check for duplicates" option in the auto-add settings enabled, I can reproduce the error, though I'm not sure yet what causes it because the logging isn't working properly for some reason with auto-added books.

As a workaround you could disable the duplicate detection for auto-added books if you always want it to add duplicates. I'll take a look to see if I can fix this bug in my plugin or if it needs to be fixed in Calibre.

I took a closer look and this seems to be a bug in Calibre, not in my plugin. Looks like nobody has ever used my plugin with the auto-add folder and enabled duplicate detection.

I've reported the bug to the Calibre developers, hoping that they can fix that issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/2003906

This bug should now be fixed in Calibre, if you set up a development environment you can already test it, otherwise you can wait until the next Calibre update.

Can you confirm that this is now fixed in Calibre 6.12? Then I can close this issue.
