No Validated OPDS content Moon+ Reader error

[Mukesh Murmu]

Following the guidance in calibre2opds website, I created a Calibre library, stored it in Dropbox and hosted it using updog.co. Everything went on smoothly but I am not able to access OPDS catalog in Moon+ Reader. I am able to access the web catalog and also Aldiko is able to access my OPDS catalog. But Moon+Reader is only showing top level (Authors, Tags etc..) and when I click any one of them, it gives me "URL not found error". Any guidance would be helpful as Moon+ Reader is my go-to reader.

I have no solution but can confirm that I had similar issues with Moon+, Alreader, Coolreader going beyond the first level of the opds catalogue. I was able to find a dedicated opds reader for Android which worked but ended up using the html catalogue instead.

I liaised with the developer but he could offer no fix.

Thanks for the heads-up. Which reader are you using now.

I wrote to the developer about this last week, but haven't recieved a reply. I just bookmarked the site in my browser and download from that, then I have to move everything into the moon reader folder.

I found a work around to the problem; instead of adding Opds catalog in Moon+ Reader(index.xml file) add web catalogue(index.html file). It's not the solution but atleast moon+ reader open the web catalog itself; it does not redirect me to the browser.

I ended up using Pocketbook and the html link. The html also works for Moon+.

I have successfully downloaded from an opds catalogue from within Moon Reader this morning, so it is working again.

Still not working for me. It's your lucky day.

Not working again for me either, it did for a couple of days, I am a beta tester, so that that might make a difference. I hope it means the developer is working on it.

OPDS is working in KOReader for the local calibre content server and such as Gutenberg.

Luck;

it started off as being a possible Calibre2opds issue (as that is what was used to generate the catalog being accessed). It looks like it has since morphed into being an issue with the way Moon+ reader is handling the generated catalog.
