Baseline versions don't seem to show up

[phokanson]

We have an extensive tree within a project based on dividing our content up into Catalogs (applications, business processes, data, etc).  The process I'm trying to follow is that each week I need to generate an HTML document from the entire project tree.  To start that process I select the top level tree and create a new baseline.  The trouble is, it finishes (takes a long time ... 4+ hours) without error, but when I go back in to list the baselines, it never created one (or at least it doesn't show up).  Have anyone seen this same thing?  Is there a remedy?
