Thumbs down Create Catalog Error

I have created a catalog in the past. However in 0.8.4 I receive the following:


calibre, version 0.8.4
ERROR: Conversion Error: <b>Failed</b>: Generate catalog

WindowsError: [Error 183] Cannot create a file when that file already exists

Am I doing something wrong??

PS: it still works in CSV output, but not for epub or mobi output

UPDATE:

Per a suggestion, I deleted the thumbs.zip file in the catalog folder under appdata and the catalog was created just fine.
