Hello:
8.9 is a pretty solid release. I’ve tested it on about 10 different books and have only run into one problem so far: the add cover tool does not work as expected. After adding or replacing cover.jpeg, invoking the tool just hangs indefinitely with the Windows “circle working” prompt. This is relatively minor stuff for such a big under the hood conversion. Great Job!! I’ve tested on my Vista Home Premium Machine with SP2 & all Microsoft KBs installed and will also try to duplicate the glitch on Windows 7 when I get the chance. More testing to come… Pete |

nother fail
Using the (NCX) TOC tool
Also A fresh Calibre converted to EPEB causes Sigil to pop a not well formed message. (repeateable on another file) |

Hi,
On Mac OSX the Creae toc (both html and ncx) seems to work just fine for my test cases. So please post a link to the problem epubs so that we can recreate the error. If you need to you can pm either Diapdealer or KevinH with the link if the epub is private. Thanks for testing and reporting back! KevinH |

Hi,
Found the bug. We grabbed a writelock and then tried to grab a readlock when we already had the writelock, so it hung in a deadlock. I just committed a fix for this to Sigil master. It will be part of a hopefully quick future update. Thanks for you bug report. KevinH Quote:

Hi najgori,
Thanks for your test case and bug report. I have just now committed a fix to this to Sigil master which will appear in the follow-up release (hopefully soon if we can get some testcases and these other bugs tracked down). Thanks, KevinH Quote:

But when I try to create ToCs from headers in Vista (using the entry on the tool bar), Sigil immediately crashes. It's repeatable. I'll let you know about Windows7 once I install 8.9 there.

Hi Pete6055,
I have tried using the Generate TOC using the button on the tool bar with 10 different epub test cases and in all cases it worked just like it was supposed to. But this is on Mac OS X. So would you please post a specific test case you know will create the crash on Windows. I will fire up my Windows VM and try to see if I can get the same epub to crash. Thanks, KevinH ps. I fired up my Windows 7 32 bit VM and downloaded Sigil-0.8.900 for Windows and installed it and ran it over the same 10 books using the Generate TOC icon and never had an issue. So we will really need a test case to track this one down. Last edited by KevinH; 09-24-2015 at 08:36 PM. |

Same here. I'm able to generate the ToC from Headers on Windows 7 with no crash. If it's repeatable, I think it's time someone just gave us one of these epubs it's happening with. Might save save some time. I'll also put 0.8.900 on my Vista machine and see what happens.

The good news is ... I can get Sigil to crash when generating an NCX from headers on Windows Vista. Just about any epub will do it for me. The bad news is ... I have no easy way of doing any real debugging on this tired old heap it's happening on.
