Bug Description
When trying to generate a catalog in MOBI or EPUB format, I get the following error and failure. It does work properly for CSV format. Running Calibre 0.8.68 on Linux. I have attached my 'metadata.db' file as requested in the forum. Thanks.

First, you can delete your metadata.db attachment, as I've download it.
When I build a catalog it's not failing for me. What computer/OS are you using?
