Well, I got it working for a little while! The problem was the links.db file contained links with ID numbers out of order. When the admin.cgi was used to edit links, it appears to have gotten some of them out of order.
The linksid.txt had a number of 153 when it should have been 209. Once I manually edited those files and saved them, I could add links with out the error.
Unfortunately, after I closed admin.cgi and opened it again, the error message has come back. The links.db file is okay but the linksid.txt file is 153 when it should be 210.
Does anyone know why this is happening? Seems like there was a thread about this 3 years ago when I first started using Links 2.0 on my Unix box.
Since this doesn't appear to be a Windows issue, I'm going to post this in the Links 2.0 Discussion forum also. I'd still appreciate an answer here if any one knows why.
