Hello All!

For the last few weeks I am having problems with mbmsg p ka and any 
combination
in that it just locks up processing for 10 minutes before exiting so that the
message bases are locked for the same time period.

The only solution I can think off is to delete all areas and let the system
recreate and use them.

I should point out that running 0.22 Create site Documents works as normal.

One trick could have been converting all to msg format but mbse does not
support msg for as all has to be JAM and there is not much about that I can
find to help.

Unless someone has a tool that will examine all of them looking for the 
problem
(without locking up) and fixing them or deleting bad one's I have no choice
but to clear the lot down.

Another issue is with some file areas that having removed al connected systems
in all related areas to specific file groups I cannot delete them using 
options
ACtive 12 and Deleted 13, without it reporting nn nodes and/or 0 tic areas
connected.  Is this a problem with the fgroups.data and/or fareas.data ?

There is no tools that will fix up these bad areas for files or mail unless
some one knows differently.

I was trying to clear down some dead file groups and areas.

If I have run mbmsg pa k and even terminated the process by exiting the
terminal program running it (I cannot do a ctl/c or z to terminate) and 
running
mbsetup it reports a busy system for many minutes depite these processes being
terminated and I cannot a semafore that is active i.e., only :

var/run/mbtask

var/sema/is_inet
var/sema/mbtask.lock





Any one with such tools ?

Vincent
