Links 2.0 not building

Links 2.0 not building
I have been using Links 2.0 for the last few years and it just started to stop 3/4 through the building process. I don't think it is because the database is too large. Any ideas are really appreciated. When I do the staggered build it takes days before all the links reaapear. The normal build only takes a minute or two. It is on www.WeddingUSA.com.

Hi,

The only way to get over a large database size, is:

1) Get rid of bad links (I.e dead URL's, etc)
2) Upgrade to Gossamer Links - as this uses SQL, so doesn't even flintch at 100,000 records + Smile)

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. My database is only about 4500 entries. Would this be considered too large? I have deleted virtually all bad links.

Hi,

Anything over 1500 links in a flatfile database is considered a lot =)
