The LDM product-queue is corrupt: there's a difference between the number of
data-products that the queue thinks it contains and the actual number of
data-products that the queue does contain.  The only solution is to delete
the product-queue and recreate it.  Use the command

    ldmadmin delqueue && ldmadmin mkqueue -f

> Thanks a lot and best regards.

You're welcome and regards to you, too.
