Hello everyone,
I'm having some trouble getting archive2.pl to work correctly, and I cannot
figure out what I'm doing wrong.
What I really want is to parse through the digests in
/usr/local/mail/lists/listname.archive (stored in the format v1999.n001)
and create the by-month archives in /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/lists that
I can then use with Wilma/MHonArc. Destination directory exists and is
writable.
I've tried all sorts of things, but from what I can tell this should
(should being the keyword) work:
archive2.pl -f /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/lists/listname -M -u
/usr/local/mail/lists/listname.archive
>From what I understand the internal documentation:
-M = grouping criteria and filename extension setting:
group by month, extension of YYYYMM
-f listname = tells archive2.pl to create the archives
with the name "listname.YYYYMM", I assume adding
a path won't affect it since it is just appending YYYYMM
to the end of the parameter data specified by -f, which should
yield:
/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/lists/listname.YYYYMM
-u = pull data from MajorDomo digests
The documentation is unclear about this. Do I specify a
specific digest to parse, or just the digest directory and it
will automatically process all digests? I've attempted to
specify both and neither are working for me.
I've tried:
/usr/local/mail/lists/listname.archive
/usr/local/mail/lists/listname.archive/v1999.n001
Can anyone shed ANY light on how to process the digests into archives so
that Wilma can understand them? Are there alternate programs that I should
be using instead?
Thank you very much for any and all help.
