Ever since my HD crashed (during a UUCP session, actually, just as uucico was exiting, process "DH0:" crashed...) and I did the old backup'n'restore, it hasn't worked properly. Rather, it worked once afterward but not since. I upgraded to 1.06D about that time. Anyhow, I'm posting this AGAIN in hopes that SOMEONE can help me. I've tried everything. The current problem is that I can make a successful connection to my host and SOMETHING seems to get transfered (judging by the modem lights) but then after a minute or so it hangs up and I get a mysterious error message in my SPOOL: logfile. I made NO changes to the configs between my last successful session and the first bad one, and I've tried a lot of different things including re-installing BOTH 1.05 and 1.06 from scratch. For a while I was getting nothing at all in the logfile but now I get the following error message every time I try: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (7/2-16:25:35) uucico,AmigaUUCP,- Startup V1.05D (7/2-16:26:00) uucico,nyx,- DIALED nyx (7/2-16:26:15) uucico,nyx,- SUCCEEDED call to nyx (7/2-16:26:20) uucico,nyx,- OK Startup (7/2-16:26:20) uucico,nyx,bscott REQUEST S D.nyxB3175 D.nyxB3175 bscott - D.nyxB3175 0666 bscott (7/2-16:29:14) uucico,nyx,bscott REQUEST S D.nyxX3172 X.nyxX3173 bscott - D.nyxX3172 0666 bscott (7/2-16:29:36) uucico,nyx,bscott Error in work file UUSPOOL:C.nyxA3174 (7/2--16:29:36) uucico,nyx,bscott Bad line is: S D.nyxX3172 X.nyxX3173 bscott - D.nyxX3172 0666 (7/2-16:29:36) uucico,nyx,bscott REQUEST S D.nyxB3179 D.nyxB3179 bscott - D.nyxB3179 0666 bscott (7/2-16:29:57) uucico,nyx,bscott Error in work file UUSPOOL:C.nyxA3178 (7/2-16:29:58) uucico,nyx,bscott Bad line is: S D.nyxB3179 D.nyxB3179 bscott - D.nyxB3179 0666 (7/2-16:29:58) uucico,nyx,bscott REQUEST S D.nyxX3176 X.nyxX3177 bscott - D.nyxX3176 0666 bscott (7/22-16:30:19) uucico,nyx,bscott Error in work file UUSPOOL:C.nyxA3178 (7/2-16:30:19) uucico,nyx,bscott Bad line iis: S D.nyxX3176 X.nyxX3177 bscott - D.nyxX3176 0666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (ASCII send a bit flaky here with "vi"... but I think it got through mostly) The sysadmin here says that from the other end, everything goes hunky-dory until after a minute or so I drop connection. He is not sure exactly what these error messages on my end mean, and I haven't a clue at all, but the upshot is that I cannot get anything sent in either direction with 1.05, 1.06 or a hybrid of the two! The setup ran fine for weeks, until the HD crash, and for a short time thereafter (and I'm sure I caught all the files affected by the HD crash and everything else was restored without problems). I've even re-downloaded the archives and re-installed from scratch, as I said, and no luck. . <<<>>> -- .---------------------------------------------------------------------------. |Ben Scott, professional goof-off and consultant at The Raster Image, Denver| |Amiga UUCP node domain: bscott@vila.denver.co.us Else: bscott@nyx.cs.du.edu| |FIDO point address 1:104/421.2, or call the Arvada 68K BBS at (303)424-9831| |"Don't embarrass us..."
