I had this problem, when i first got nntpcache to work, i blame it on seeing the program run with a "working" config then "kill"ing the process to get an "optimal" config, before the rebuild finished, every time after that i kept getting 417 groups complete. What i did to fix it was rpm -evv nntpcache (ie nuke the whole thing) then make sure all files created by nntpcache were removed (i kept MY config files, that's it) then reinstalled with rpm -ivv nntpcache*rpm. It then worked very smoothly, and has done so for around a week now, with a large user base... > error remains: > > > > A News (NNTP) error occured: initial server rebuild in progress > (2 groups > > complete), please try again later. > > > > nntpcache is running, but not working.
