Yeah, I'm getting this error now too, for your book. Does your book convert to PDF successfully, or have you not tried that? I'm assuming it's the same conversion algorithm for both, so if PDF succeeds, we know it's a problem with PediaPress's server. If PDF does not
Thanks for your investigation! I can confirm that there is a problem with our server when the collection with all its required resources (91MB) is uploaded. We are working to resolve this issue which probably is related to the huge file size. So the same error will probably ocurre with "Muggles' Gude to Harry Potter" ;)
Let me explain what happens in behind the scenes.: If users render a PDF, ODF or send a collection to pediapress - a zip- file with all needed resources (wikitext, templates, images) is created at first. This is either used to generate the exports or sent to pediapress. The problem we encounter is with the upload of this zip-file - so this issue is unrelated to PDF generation.
BTW: pediapress uses a different PDF rendering technology which is more suitable for printed books - but slower.
