CNFS not storing articles

I can not see anything misconfigured in my overview.ctl. The directory
uniover contains 1/ 2/ 3/ 4/ 5/ 6/ 7/ 8/ 9/ 10/ directories each with
an overview file (0 bytes). The directory tree and files are all owned by
news.news with rwxrwxr-x permission settings.

My newsfeed file is using the overview api entry

*** News Feed ***
# use this flag if storage api is used
overview!:*:Tc,Ao,WhR,S30000:/usr/var/spool/news/bin/overchan

ME\
  :*,!junk,!control*,!local*,!foo.*\
    /world,usa,na,gnu,bionet,pubnet,u3b,eunet,vmsnet,inet,ddn,k12\

*** inn.conf has storageapi set ***

I have an overview.ctl file configured as

*** Overview.ctl ***
1:mc.*
2:alt.binaries.*
3:alt.*
4:comp.*
5:sci.*
6:rec.*
7:misc.*
8:talk.*
9:soc.*
10:*

This is really puzzling.
