Re-editing PB requires restart?

It seems like there are times when a build will fail when I delete the book from a PB catalog entry, and then re-add a revised version to build. It might be when I have left the Word doc open, even if I have subsequently closed the Word file, it will never build again until I close Logos and restart it.

Anyone else seeing this?

I did have a lot of problems doing just that. I found out that i was going through too many steps. And the PB wasn't closed.

One interesting thing I found out was that I didn't need to delete the book from a catalog entry. All I have had to do is save the changes made in my .docx then hit the Build Book button and it would change itself.

You are right. If you save changes to your docx file and hit Build the book button, it works, even you do not close Word with the docx file opened.

It might be that if you delete the project and want to start a new one with the same file creates that problem Dominic is speaking about since the file is still linked to the original location in Logos.

I'll try just hitting the Build button again. FYI I was deleting the file within the project, not the project.

Thanks!

I have the same problem. If I try to build the book again after making changes to the docx file, Logos give me an error. If I delete the book and re-upload it and try to build it I get the same error. Only after closing Logos and re-opening it up am I able to upload the book and build it again.

That is also my experience, but I run into a Build Failure because the resource cannot be deleted. Then I have to close Search panel or another panel in which it was used, or restart L4.

Same problem here. I don't see any definite pattern.

It mostly works with the file still open in Word. I sometimes delete the docx-files from the "Body files"-section and then add them again. But even doing this I will sometimes get failed compilations. So I usually just close and restart Logos. Then it usually works for 2-4 rebuildings before "crashing" again.

A few times when I got the error message, I re-added the file to the project (without deleting it first) and waited a while and it compiled the book succesfully after that. Some times however it did not help and I got error again. Swometimes it helped to restart the PBB Tool, but again, not always. So I am not able to say what is it really.
