Ok I added a bunch (maybe 800?) links to my db (no errors and nothing is messed up). I figure the script is timing out and its time to try the build staggered link, I got further but it still just quits. Interesting things happen when build stalls (e.g. subcategory page category links also show up on category pages, no descriptions either). I've searched the archives, all the build failures seem to be configuration related (returning errors). I see in the FAQ Bobsie says (about build staggered) "Each phase is designed to be small enough to prevent time-outs or, at least, that is the theory." Theory doesn't work, I had to pare back the database to get build to finish. Any ideas/solutions would be much appreciated.
