It just hung, probably due to broken ebook, but still there is no logs. And if process cannot continue it should skip and report broken item, not just hung (0.9.3) I'm open as previously to help.

Do you run a compiled executable file (.exe)?

zsokolowski commented 8 years ago

exactly, Windows version and not console, there should be debug button.

zsokolowski commented 8 years ago

btw I've choosen an option, process less than 7 days

quiris11 commented 8 years ago

If so the app is probably (99.99%) blocked by your antivirus application. Try to disable your antivirus or run extracted ZIP file with installed Python 2.7.x (double click on gui.pywfile).

zsokolowski commented 8 years ago

For sure not, when I disable (process less than day option) it processes correctly books till it stops.

quiris11 commented 8 years ago

Can you provide a log (a content of a message window)?

zsokolowski commented 8 years ago

how to produce log file?

quiris11 commented 8 years ago

The message window contains a log. Debugging is not possible. The posted log shows no suspects, so I strongly advise disable antivirus or running application straight from a source as described above.

zsokolowski commented 8 years ago

whith whole respect I would recommend to add sumary line to log to ensure that process finished

zsokolowski commented 8 years ago

and with 7 days, log window is just empty, and books were uploaded yesterday, I would implement exceptions in other way, changing option in app do not change antivir action

quiris11 commented 8 years ago

There is a summary after completing completing task. As I said earlier such strange behavior described by you is for sure caused by antivirus. Check comments on my blog (in Polish): http://blog.blaut.biz for similar reports.

zsokolowski commented 8 years ago

so if you can't see summary in log which I copied above it should be clear that something went wrong, don't you think?

quiris11 commented 8 years ago

ExtractCoverThumbs is a simple script written in my free time which wasn't planed to be compiled as exe. It doesn't have an advanced logic to detection antivirus access to file blocks. I will eventually look for the problem, but I can't promise that it will be fixed.
