Problem with expire

[Sameh Ghane]

Running expire manually by 'news', on INN 2.3.1 (20001121 prerelease):

expire -d /usr/local/news/db -v2 -r "Message" (wd: /var/spool/news/cnfs_baie/db)
Can't read line 9497816, No such file or directory
Article lines processed  8417816
Articles retained         128956
Entries expired          8288860
Old entries dropped      1079999
Old entries retained           0

Strange error message. Any idea ?
