I'm running cnews with a patchdate of 24-Mar-1991 on an H-P 9000/350 running HPUX Ver.8.02 or so. Expire has recently been dying with the following message mailed to root: --- expire problems: expire: no slash in article path `comp.un' --- my explist looks like: # modified version, no archiving # # hold onto history lines 14 days, nobody gets >90 days /expired/ x 14 - /bounds/ x 0-1-90 - # override later defaults for some groups of note sci.space.shuttle,rec.birds x 7 - # big non-tech groups held long enough for a long weekend sci,rec,talk,soc,misc,alt,news,gnu u 4 - # real noise gets thrown away fast news.groups x 2 - junk,tor.news.stats x 2 - # throw away some technical stuff not worth archiving comp.os.vms,comp.mail.maps x 7 - # default: 7 days and archive all x 7 - My active file is too large to include here, but every line with 'comp.un' in it seems to be ok. What do I need to do so that expire can successfully complete? -- mark.lawrence@drd.com (918)743-3013 DRD Corp., 5506 South Lewis Ave., Tulsa, OK 74105 (918)745-9037 fax
