Do you have your calibre library ona network disk? If so, move it off to
a local disk and you will be fine. See
http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq.html#i-am-getting-errors-with-my-calibre-library-on-a-networked-drive-nas

If not, feel free to post a followup.

I had the Library on a external disc!
I just now moved it to a internal disc, and received the same error message.

I tried it with the 32bit aswel as the 64bit versions of 1.0.0 and got the same result.

I run on Windows 7 64bit.

Problem occured after 1.0.0 upgrade.

And I see there are more problems with database integrety! ?

Attach the metadata.db file from your calibre library folder.

[Arjen Ronhaar (arjen-ronhaar)]

 metadata.db<https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwKer3IKVRd4WWwtRS1Kekt4TE0/edit?usp=drive_web>

 metadata_db_prefs_backup.json<https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwKer3IKVRd4WC1fWnBrenptMGM/edit?usp=drive_web>
Here are the requested files.
