Are you using the test versions mentioned in the post immediately prior
to yours?

My shorter tests of only a couple chapters using the latest test version
(2.24.4) of CLI, Web service and Plugin all worked. Same URLs except
for https://2-24-4-dot-fanficfare.appspot.com/

A full download in the plugin also worked, but did take 1.5 hours with
the sleep times I keep in my testing library.

(Next time maybe give an example that doesn't have over 1000 chapters?)

Plugin started working after I rebooted my system (don't know why). It only requires restarting caliber after updating a plugin. Sorry for 1000 chapter fic. I got the failed message so many time It kinda slipped my mind. Thanks for the help.

This link  https://2-24-4-dot-fanficfare.appspot.com/ keep giving '503 over quota' though.

The web service has limited quota:

If you have the plugin working, please use it instead.
