Hello, I'm having a play with nntpcache and it newver seems to get past the initial server rebuild stage (0 groups complete) despite it having been started 3 hours previously. There's nothing logged at news.info that would suggest a problem (and I have logDebug set to yes) so I'm kind of stuck and would welcome some suggestions. Here's various stuff from news.info since I started it up: Feb 22 13:09:57 dionysos nntpcached[22973]: waiting for NTTP connections on DEFAULT:119 Feb 22 13:09:57 dionysos nntpcached[22973]: waiting for HTTP connections on DEFAULT:9119 Feb 22 13:09:57 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: update task awakening Feb 22 13:09:57 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: checking server jupiter.news.clara.net for 'overview.fmt' Feb 22 13:09:57 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: parsing 'overview.fmt' from jupiter.news.clara.net Feb 22 13:09:57 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: checking server jupiter.news.clara.net for 'active' Feb 22 13:09:57 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: parsing 'active' from jupiter.news.clara.net Feb 22 13:09:59 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: checking server jupiter.news.clara.net for 'active.times' Feb 22 13:09:59 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: parsing 'active.times' from jupiter.news.clara.net Feb 22 13:10:00 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: checking server jupiter.news.clara.net for 'newsgroups' Feb 22 13:10:00 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: parsing 'newsgroups' from jupiter.news.clara.net Feb 22 13:10:00 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: checking server mors.news.clara.net for 'overview.fmt' Feb 22 13:10:00 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: parsing 'overview.fmt' from mors.news.clara.net Feb 22 13:10:00 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: checking server mors.news.clara.net for 'active' Feb 22 13:10:00 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: parsing 'active' from mors.news.clara.net Feb 22 13:10:42 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: checking server mors.news.clara.net for 'active.times' Feb 22 13:10:42 dionysos nntpcache-update[22974]: parsing 'active.times' from mors.news.clara.net [snip] Feb 22 15:24:21 dionysos nntpcache-client[23103]: shaft.noc.clara.net romance refused with unknown@shaft.noc.clara.net (195.8.70.216) due to rebuild in-progress (0 groups complete) Feb 22 15:24:21 dionysos nntpcache-client[23103]: client task retiring Feb 22 15:24:21 dionysos nntpcache-client[23103]: shaft.noc.clara.net exit articles 0 groups 0 Feb 22 15:24:21 dionysos nntpcache-client[23103]: shaft.noc.clara.net times user 0.01 system 0.00 elapsed 0.00 Feb 22 15:24:21 dionysos nntpcache-client[23103]: clean shutdown Any pointers would be appreciated :) -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark Ivens mivens@clara.net "I'd buy that for a dollar!"
