Did you zip up the html file and the subdirectory containing the images as one operation? And did your settings also save the relative path of the subdirectory?

If you zipped the html file, and then went to the subdirectory and zipped the files there (even into the same zip file), the zip file would then not have the relative relationship info needed. The same failure would happen if you zipped it all at once, but had the setting to save the relative path turned off.

Good evening from Japan
Maybe I did ask a similar question before ...

I wrote a book using Writer which I am now trying to upload to Kindle.

The instructions say, I must save the file as html and then create a zip
file from the html file + the images.
"Save as ... html" creates a content file and a whole long list of files
for the images.
...

I would contact Amazon technical support and ask what is the problem. It
appears that they want the images in the same directory as the html
files. If so, it is relatively easy to correct the html file references
to the images, if a bit tedious, and move the images into the same
folder. LO actual exports html in the preferred mode with the images
stored in separate folder.



Thank you.
I am afraid, I am not following you.
"save the relative path of the subdirectory" ...
Where and how am I supposed to do that.
This morning I tried to
* save the Writer file as html
* copy the created/indexed image files into a separate folder (like the "Word procedure")
* zipped both.
But nowhere I can see any setting/check boxes etc. (including options -> paths) where I can set a relative path ...
And the uploaded zip file again gives the same error.
So does the zip file created with Word for that matter
Have you tried saving the document from LO as a .doc and uploading that to Amazon. They say tey accept .doc format.
For the HTML documents there is information here
https://kdp.amazon.com/self-publishing/help?topicId=A1KSPVAI36UUC1
http://kindleformatting.com/book/files/KindleHTMLtags.pdf

It seems fairly specific but may not align with the default formatting produced by LO.
