Problem running archive

["Andrew Robinson" <Andrew.Robinson@binarything.com>]

Hi all,

We have MHonArc 2.5.2 installed on Windows 2000 Server.  We have performed successful updates to our archive of a mailing list for over 6 months.  However, recently after adding a few new mail message and attempting to run the buildarchive executable, the program always errors on the same mail file.  

The error received is "Error: Runtime exception".  At this stage we are unable to determine the cause of the problem.  Is there a limit on the number of, or size of, mail messages?  We have 167 mail files, approximately 500 KB each.  Every time the process fails on the same message, and then "mhonarc.lck" folder is created in the "archive" sub-directory.  Attempts to remove the lock folder during the process results in the same failure on future messages.

We have also tried removing the mail file that the process fails on, however, the process still fails.

Thanks for any information or assistance, greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Andrew Robinson - VP, Technology
