Hi,
I am experiencing the following error upon an attempt to create a catalog. It must have to do with specific books, not the size of the catalog, because I can create much bigger catalogs that this one (some 300 books only). I ascertained that the problem lies within these 331 books. If I exclude them, then I do not get an error.
How do I figure out which book is the culprit?
Thanxx for any help,
Mixx
Here is the trace:
