[daisy] PDF Books are Imageless: "IBEX: Illegal character inpath at index 18"

[Caleb Callaway]

Well, it was a nice thought...

Tried moving the Wiki data around, no dice. "IBEX: Illegal character in path
at index 18: file:///C:/Program Files/Daisy-1.5.1/wrapper/bin/"

Tried moving the wrapper directory and monkeying with environment variables,
still no joy.

In a fit of fatigue-induced frustration, completely removed Daisy and
re-installed. Problem: didn't run the backup utility first. 

I have a copy the whole Daisy installation, but I'm guessing that without
the contents of the MySQL databases, I'm pretty much screwed. The only thing
that looked like it might have potential is the "blobstore" directory in the
RepoData. Is it possible to extract my documents from there, or do I have a
lot of typing ahead of me?

Not that I'm aware of, maybe someone can search out if there is some way to
encode the spaces so that Ibex will accept them.

Moving Daisy normally shouldn't be hard, and if you're using Daisy 1.5 you
only need to move the wikidata directory. After moving it, just supply the
new location as argument when starting the wiki. Doesn't seem like something
massively unpleasant to me :-)
