I'm guessing it's this line right here which is causing problems. Your href should really be in URI format, as if it were going on to a website.

BOOKNAME.html#abc if it's a file in the same directory.

file://C/Kindle-Initial/BOOKNAME.html#abc if it's not and you're using an absolute reference. (Drive initial may need to be put in differently. I'm on a Mac and volumes are handled differently.) Or ../KindleInitial/BOOKNAME.html#abc if you prefer relative URI and it's in a neighbouring directory.

I have no idea why KindleGen 1.1 would handle things differently if KindleGen 1.0 accepted it already, but this seems the most likely cause.

Of course I could be completely wrong.

Also, for anyone else encountering the same error message, I discovered through trial and error that if you have an # in your directory name, say "#1 First in Series", you'll get that error message during the failed build even if your files are otherwise utterly correct.

Hope this helps.

ETA: Oh wait, it looks like your file is simply located in the wrong directory. You're linking to Kindle-Initial/BOOKNAME.html, while KindleGen is looking for Kindle-Initial/files/BOOKNAME.html, according to the error message.

That's probably it.
