very strange nntpcache startup problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

One of our machines doesn't want to run nntpcache properly; it keeps
saying 'romance refused with ... due to rebuild in-progress (14 groups
complete)' when connecting to it. This machine is binary equivalent to
our 20 other machines. So my guess is that it must be a problem with the
configuration files, but they are short and i cannot find an error in
them. (I'll append them below) This is nntpcache V2_3_3 on BSDI
4.0.1+patches.

nntpcache.servers:

localhost:120           localhost  2m 20m 20m 10m 60d 60d
%BeginGroups
*                       localhost:120

and on localhost:120 inn serves 7 groups (this is a testserver ;-).
nntpcache says it has 14 groups complete... When i remove the only file
in the nntpcache spool dir (nntpcache.stats) and start nntpcache again
it complains when making a connection to it 'romance refused with ...
due to rebuild in-progress (7 groups complete)' When i stop/start again
is barfs '14 groups' again.  My spool is almost empty and has 2GB
available.

syslog has:

nntpcached[901]: waiting for NTTP connections on <mymachine>:119
nntpcached[901]: waiting for HTTP connections on DEFAULT:9119
nntpcache-update[905]: update task awakening

nntpcache-update[905]: parsing 'newsgroups' from localhost:120
nntpcache-update[905]: update task retiring
nntpcache-update[905]: clean shutdown

Any ideas ? This one really puzzles me.
