Ubooquity new install on Ubuntu 16.04 can only see 1st page through browser

acor13 8 years ago • updated by Tom 8 years ago • 3

Hello All,


I recently setup up Ubooquity on Ubuntu Server 16.04. It catalogged all my comics. When I click on one and attempt to read it however, it only says the comic is 1 page and only shows the cover. I am not able to switch pages because it says the comic only has 1 cover. I've checked the logs and see no errors in it. I've pasted a sample of my logs below:

Any input provided would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like I was able to resolve my own issue. I was missing the following paramter in my service script


"-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8"


So I was essentially running


" -jar /etc/opt/ubooquity/ubooquity/Ubooquity.jar -webadmin -headless -port 80"


instead of:


"-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar /etc/opt/ubooquity/ubooquity/Ubooquity.jar -webadmin -headless -port 80"


After adding that parameter that I found on the following post, it did the trick (the metadata was applying too):


http://ubooquity.userecho.com/topics/117-help-how-to-for-ubuntu-14-headless/


If someone has an explanation on why that parameter is necessary or what does it exactly mean to someone who don't know squat 'bout Java, I'd appreciate it.

The "UTF-8" parameter is sometimes needed to tell the Java VM (the Java process that runs Ubooquity) that the underlying file system is using UTF-8 encoding.


I don't know exactly why this is necessary on some systems, for instance I didn't need it on my Raspberry Pi (on Raspbian) and not on some others.
