7-9 hours later on a very fast gaming laptop with an ultra fast SSD, it worked. I had given up after letting it run for 1 hr and then 2 hrs since my laptop is so fast. What doesn't seem to work is the ability to "Upload" the file now that it's been built. That is sad since rebuilding it takes so long. No (easy) way to move it to my other computers running Logos ... a shame. Looks really good though.
There is a way—to manually backup the generated files and copy them to other machines.
E.g. in macOS, those files are in
$HOME/Library/Application\ Support/Logos4/Data/*/ResourceManager/Resources/.Those PBB has file extension
*.lbspbb. Copy those only.Paste them in a similar location on the other machine. Note that
*is a wildcard.On other platforms, you can find those path in wiki.
The whole process can be automated. And if you are on UNIX, I can give you my rsync script that automate this.

I tried rebuilding it last night but I cancelled it because it was going to take hours. If anyone can help me would appreciate it as now I can't rebuild it and its a dummy file. I asked for support from FL but they basically said "go ask the forum."John 3:17 (ESV)

Chris,
your error is just that the file is in use somehow. Restart Logos from scratch (possible to an empty layout) and run the PB tool on it - it should work, but yes, it takes time.
Have joy in the Lord!

Thanks NB.Mick. I'll try that.

Any thoughts why I get stuck with the following:

Sorry, it turns out that I was just impatient ... ran it overnight and it was ready to go. Though it had 64 errors, I don't think that impacted the compile as it seems to all be there ... loving it!
To have wiki in the midst of my searches is brilliant! Thanks for this!!

Hello Diego, welcome to the Logos forums!Hello, could someone help me? I can't download the module
Could you please explain at what part of the process you're running into problems?- First, you'll have to download the files for this personal book.
- This link should take you to a dropbox page to download them.
- You'll have to download all of the docx files, to download them all at once as a zip file click on the Download button on the top right-hand corner of the browser window.
- Once downloaded you'll have to unzip the zip file. If you're on a Windows or Mac, you can right click on it and select "unzip" or similar.
- Then open Logos, go to the tools menu, and select "Personal Books"
- On the personal books panel, click "Add Book"
- Fill in the information however you'd like. Author, Description, etc. For "type" select "Encylopedia" from the drop down menu.
- Click "Add Files"
- Navigate to the spot on your PC that you unzipped the files to, and select the folder.
- When you're in the folder, hold down the space bar and select the top resource (it should be DCB-00) and then navigate down to the bottom of the folder and select the bottom most resource (DCB-36)
- Select the button that says "Open"
- In the Logos personal book panel, Select the Build Book button.
- When the process is over, the book should automatically open in Logos.
Be warned, it takes a very long time depending on your PC, so be patient. It is a valuable resource though, it's worth the wait.
You can find other information on this page as well.
Hope this works.

Awesome!
A transfer to a new OS meant I'd lost this resource.
The above instructions worked well, with some warnings and a few Hebrew related errors, notwithstanding.
Build time: 60 minutes
System: M1 Max0
