	Hi Simon, I'm still having this problem. Can it be related to note 754 ? I don't think so, but ... I want to delete all the log files and archive files and see what happens ... Or do you have something else in mind ?

	I deleted the files in the console$archive directory. Started an archive and re-did the console verify. It works now. Rgds, Geert

	Geert, a little while after you had the problem before someone else had a similar problem after archiving and I had to change part of the archive algorithm. I guess you saw a hangover from that problem. Cheers Simon....
