It looks like this may be related to pull request #1896 - “New indexes for big databases in the narrative web report”.

Thanks Nick

My Family Tree is approx 18000 individuals, tried increasing the value
for the index from 500 to 2000 made no difference.
Will spend some more time on this and get back to you

Make a bug request for this problem.

We have a problem here. Did you modified the sources ?

The following instruction does not exist at line 557:

max_rows = max_letter_rows[bletter]

I run 2 PC’s a Pi5 running Bookworm and an i5 running LMDE6 both have
Version 5.2.4 with your mod for incl roles.
Both do have that line as described at line 557.
Neither has been updated or changed in the last 3 months.

I have subsequently run the report on the Pi using a simplified tree
with no problem.

I need to retrace all my steps to reproduce the error will get back to you
