Hello Glenn,
We (collectively, not royally :-) ) had this problem on our system
some time back. Turns out there was a message with a ' in the
Subject line, and when MHonArc stored that ' in its dbfile it
mistakenly read it as a string terminator for the value in the
hashtable. As I recall, the solution was to edit the mail file
and escape the offending apostrophe before rebuilding the archive.
YMMV,
Eric
: G'day,
:
: I'm running Mhonarc v2.0 beta 3 under DEC Unix 3.2c on around 50 lists, =
: and sometimes my cron=20
: that runs Mhonarc returns the following error:
:
: ---
: Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at=20
: /users/itstaff/list/html/secure/ITC125/.mhonarc.db line 38.
: syntax error at /users/itstaff/list/html/secure/ITC422/.mhonarc.db line =
: 30, at EOF
: Warning: Could not parse date for message
: Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at=20
: /users/itstaff/list/html/secure/WebDevel/.mhonarc.db line 34.
: ---
:
: I understand the date error, but the terminator stuff has me confused.
: Can anyone offer any thoughts on what could be wrong?
