ignoblekeygen message "Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'bnepubkeyb64'"

[cameronhopkin]

All right, my fine folks, I've searched around and have been unable to find any solutions for this particular snag: when I run ignoblekeygen I get an error message that reads "Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'bnepubkeyb64'". I saw one other post with someone reporting this error on the I<3 Cabbages blog, but there were no answers given, and the author hasn't commented on it in a GOOD long while.

Particulars: running Windows 7 x64, python 2.7.1 (32-bit, as per instructions), OpenSSL 1.0.0 (also 32-bit). Also installed pycrypto to see if that would make the difference, but no dice.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks, everybody!

I'd suggest trying the latest tools in the tools v3.0 archive (latest link always on my blog - see my profile), and if you still have problems, asking there, which where the maintainers of the scripts hang out.

I had this exact same error. I went to ApprenticeAlf's blog and saw that instead of the python stuff I could just use a Calibre plugin. Since I already had Calibre it was perfect. I installed the plugin and it worked just fine no errors.
