      Hello Stephen!              Wednesday September 02 2015 10:17, you wrote to me:               > Hello. I seem to have hit a snag with v1.0.6.

Once I removed STN from my BBS I was able to compile the        > nodelist no problem.                     Just in case it is:              Go to the directory containing the sources of mbsebbs-1.0.6              make clean              ./configure       make > build.log 2>build.err              less build.err              Now see if you have any error messages and likewise warnings to make sure that       none are important.              In my case I have warning regarding case, defererencing, and time-t and a fair       few if computed or referenced but unused.              These are not causing me any noticable issues. Been there for yonks anyway.       Oh, I run under Mageia v4 X64.                     With that done now check build.log and go to the end and that should look        clear       as well.              If you are getting any error messages you must act on them.              If all is well install it via       su       make install              Then exit the terminal prog and reload it and log in to user mbse and restart       mbtask. IF neede stop then start - in my case its a :       /etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed stop       /etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed start              You must not get error messages also see INSTALL and read the Upgrading       section to ensure you have not missed anything.              One small point - I use Golded and it sometimes causes me problems that       written messages vanish and/or do not get processed by mbfido s (or with -f).              This could be a curruption of the message base and the issue is usually with       netmail so I just delete the lot in my netmail areas having coping them to       another area if really needed but tend to avoid that just in case.              Must find another editor sometime.                     Vince              --- Mageia Linux v4/Mbse v1.0.6/GoldED+/LNX 1.1.501-b20150715        * Origin: Air Applewood, The Linux Gateway to the UK (2:250/1)    |
