2.5 How can I automatically limit the amount of debug logfiles that are stored?

Use the tmpwatch command. Add a line in /etc/cron.daily like this ... +

Use the tmpwatch command. Create a file in /etc/cron.daily/ containing the line ... 

 /usr/sbin/tmpwatch -f 240 /spider/data/debug
+

Remember to make it executable!

This will limit your debug data down to the last 10 days

2.6 I updated my Linux distribution and now Spider cannot read the users file or the dupefile, what is the problem? +

+ +

Almost certainly this is a change in the db format of perl. Follow these +few steps to correct the problem. +

+

+

That should solve the problem. +

+

2.7 Since I last updated I seem to be getting duplicate spots appearing. +

+ +

What has probably happened is that the dupefile has got corrupted in +some way. Simply delete the /spider/data/dupefile and restart the +cluster. It may take a little time to become fully functional but +should solve your problem. +

+

2.8 I have deleted a message but it is still there, why? +

+ +

This is now the way messages are handled for deletion in Spider. If you +look closely you will see a 'D' following the message number. This +message is marked for deletion and will be deleted in 2 days if nothing +further is done. Optionally you can use the command delete/expunge +to delete it immediately. +
