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 ?
