Unknown Category cgi error
I'm getting this error:

CGI ERROR
==========================================
Error Message : Unkown Category: Entertainment_Industry/Music.
Script Location : nph-build.cgi
Perl Version : 5.00502

I see the problem being the (.) after Music,
but how do I fix it? category.db doesn't have it listed.

What isn't in categories.db, the category itself or the period? The period is part of the error message, not part of the category name.

Well I found the problem, but not the solution. I had a category as Entertainment,
Then another category called
Entertainment_Industry
For some reason, it won't recognize any of those categories or subcats. I deleted the Entertainment_Industry cat and all is well now. This also solved my problem with numbers not adding up (posted elsewhere) cause the staggered auto did not finish that set of categories in the build once it hit the error, it jumped to the next set.

But thanks for pointing out that the period was part of the error message, now I know.

Now I have one other problem which I will post next "delete not complete"

Thanks,
Beckie

You might want to make Entertainment_Industry a subcategory of Entertainment by renameing it to Entertainment/Industry.
