How does one install pip and comictagger in pyenv?
How are you trying to metatag the files? It doesn't look like it's from a normal post-processing run - from the group metatagging option?
Also need to know the build/commit of mylar you're running as a similar issue was fixed in the last few development commits.
If you run mylar from the command line instead of as a daemon and execute the metatagging request, is there any additional information that spits out in the console window?

Resurrecting this post, i recently went through the steps to enable comictagger and start updating my libs. This issue is still present in the latest development branch:
When using the Manual MetaTagging button it will randomly fail on a RAR conversion. It will move it to temp, but not move the zip back. Sometimes deleting the temp folder as well. Ive lost a few issues this way.
I found that switching to the following method works better to convert your files:

I've seen this happen just recently myself - where if you did a manual metatagging, it creates the temp in the right directory, but when it goes to move the zip back it actually moves it back 2 levels up (so in the root of Comic Location), and then dies following due to not being able to physically locate the file in the expected location. If you happen to see the portion where it deletes the temp file after an unsuccessful conversion/move, can you try to gather the log for it? I'd like to see where it's failing exactly - whether in the move and not returning a failed response, or if it's deleting the temporary file even if it's already gotten the failed response from the move. I do have a patch coming for comictagger that fixes the problem with it failing on some systems (mainly those that don't have CT installed from what I can gather), but it patches it so it should work regardless of the system now at least.
I didn't know the export to zip command existed within CT - I'll have to check that out too

Ok, in response to this and some others having issues (as well as myself today) - I've removed all of the cbr/cbz conversions that Mylar was doing, as well as the whole temp directory/moving/cd'ing thing. Now it just uses the command Kalinon posted above to export to zip, then runs the tagging commands on said issues. No more deleting files, folders that are temporary but not empty, or other problems - and I also added in a bunch of checks that should now ensure that everything runs abit more smoothly especially when dealing with types of errors.
This will be in the next development commit, along with a whack of other stuff as well as the general patch to get comictagger working on some systems (it had stopped working for some).
Unless you're running another script after post-processing, you don't need to have 'Extra scripts After' enabled pointing to the bin dir. Just leave metatagging enabled as you have it, disable the extra scripts part and it should be good to go.
Mylar uses the included comictagger, as it has enhancements and some improvements over the last official release - so you cannot change it out and expect things to work, because they won't
