Hi,
your files worked fine for me on gentoo linux with both greenstone
2.51 and greenstone 2.52.

So, things to check:
1) check that the generated file in the collection's archives/ directory
is valid utf-8. The build process will skip any archive files that
the xml parser can't parse (which includes badly encoded files).

2) check the collection's etc/fail.log file, which logs any files that
couldn't be imported. This means that they don't get marked up and
stored in the archives/ directory.

Once we've narrowed down where the problem is occurring, we can track
down why :)
