LRC book to Blurb

I have successfully used and had books print from LRC to Blurb but this time I have a problem.

I am using the previous update as I had started this book a few months ago and didnt want to update LRC half way through a book.

When I try to 'Send the book to Blurb'.   It goes  just over half way across in the top left 'Uploading Book to Blurb'.  and then an error

notice comes up but doesnt tell me what the error is. I close Lightroom down and start again.

Earlier it gave me the photo which was the problem so I removed it from the book and used a different photo.. The Export Book to PDF worked ok.

I really dont want to make a mistake this book has taken me so long to make so any help appreciated.

I am using LRC 12.4. on a  macOS Ventura

My first thought after seeing your screen-clip is- MAKE "Saved Book".!   Your current book is in an "unsaved" mode and very prone to mistakes and loss. 

A "Saved Book" Collection stores all you book design work in a Book Collection that can be copied (make a duplicate book collection). Opening a Book Collection (by a double-click) is ALWAYS the way to re-open your saved book (only use the top [Book] menu to start a new book.)

 

Then there is a post here- that might have some more clues to help you find your problem.
