Hello all.

Im having a problem with this mod at the moment.

Followed setup instructions to the T.

Ran the script.

All imported off the newsgroup, great!

A few hours later i go and setup the cron to run every 15mins.

It runs, and abou 95% of the messages are re-downloaded!

I've tried so many differnt ways of fixing this, but every time, when the script runs again after the initial sync it downloads most the messages again!

No errors, just hundreds of duplicates!

Stupmed? You can see for youself here - http://ukvoiptalk.com/forum/uk-telecom-voip/

Please help.

Matt

EDIT: Just an update to show you what my cron output was.

Pretty please guys, can someone give me a had with this?

Thanks
Matt

Yep, still looking for a little pointer for this one if anyone is willing!?

Sorry, I have no idea what might cause this. Seeing as there are no replies so far, I'm guessing no one else has any idea either.

One thing you can check though. If you check NNTP Gateway Newsgroups from Admin Control Panel, what value do you have under Last Message? It should be the same as the last message you imported.

yeah it is.

Well i deleted the forum and removed all synced posts.
Setup a new forum. Went in to admin CP and set the last post at 12000.

If i run gatway.php it starts importing from 0, and then sets the last imported post correctly. However, if i then run it again, it starts from 0 again even though the last post is incremented!

Thanks for you suggestion bud, but looks like im still stuck.

Our killfile very often ends up killing the first message in a thread. In those cases, successive messages which have a "Re: " in the message title create new threads such as "Re: Here is my message...".

However, if there is no prior "Here is my message..." message on my system, I would rather NNTP_GW remove the "Re: " and just make the first message "Here is my message..." to which successive replies would append.

Has anyone already written a routine to accomplish this (I assume it would only take 5-10 lines of code) or is there an experienced PHP programmer willing to write it out in a few minutes time?

Thanks. -- Rik

PS:

Frankly, I would just assume remove the "Re: " from all messages as its not necessary for vb. One only needs it when replying back to Usenet.

Update: If you wish to remove the "Re: " from post titles and thread titles, below is a thread at vbulletin.com that shows how to accomplish this retroactively by updating the forum mysql database (backup first, of course):

Of course, if someone could adjust gateway.php to accomplish this during the import phase, that would be a better solution.

Hi, am getting this error while running : gateway.php (I run it manually):
