[BUG] Docker Mods for Calibre override my plugins config about docker-calibre-web HOT 7 CLOSED

@adamshand I'm not certain that error in the log is what actually causes the issue I'm filing. Since this is running "headless" I don't know if that error is relevant to any issue.

I'm running headless as well.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. The issue that you are encountering I suspect is that somewhere the build of calibre used by the docker mod expects to have some desktop environment to plug into, which doesn't exist, causing this exception. I don't expect this actually causes issue since it's not really designed for using calibre as a desktop application anyway here. If you don't need the docker mod, happy that fixes the problem for you. My issue is that the mod is not working the way I'd expect it to. My workflow requires that I have calibre installed on my docker container since I'm relying on some of its plugins for aiding in ebook conversion.

I just upgraded to latest and am also getting the "Setting up desktop integration failed with error" error on startup.

from docker-calibre-web.

I'm running headless as well.

Removing "DOCKER_MODS=linuxserver/mods:universal-calibre" from my docker-compose.yml got rid of the error for me.

Current Behavior

With the universal-calibre docker mod enabled, my calibre config directory gets rewritten after the docker container is created. so, any plugins I have configured get erased, and the customize.py.json file is also deleted.

if you are trying to leverage custom plugin configs, you should be following https://www.linuxserver.io/custom are you doing so? if you are, we can dig in to why the mod is impacting your custom configs

Provided the supported method to use custom scripts and such, OP did not reply for a full month. Closing as we cannot reproduce any issue.
