[RAMADDA #UAR-718599]: Problem with harvester moving files

Hi Rich,

That error was from the metadata. I cannot tell exactly it was but the string 
length of the harvested metadata exceeded the database field length.

I will make a change to handle this error better so it doesn't blow the whole 
harvest out of the water. So, you can either wait for this change (later today) 
or run your harvester again over the remaining files without harvesting the 
metadata.
