innd dies

[Jan Ploski]

Hello again,

I'm having problems with inn again :(
This time it simply exits after running for a short while.
I have read all the troubleshooting tips in the FAQ and found
no advice regarding the message "ME source lost . Exiting".
Here is how it looks like in the log:

Mar 18 23:16:20 southuist innfeed[13205]: ME starting innfeed v. 1.0 (Wed Dec 29 16:54:51 GMT 1999) at Sat Mar 18 23:16:20 2000

(The MODE STREAM failed line does not concern me, it is because
our custom news server which is fed by inn does not support
streaming.)

Again, I would greatly appreciate your help. Isn't there
a complete listing of error/log messages produced by INN?
Most of them are too cryptic to be understood without assistance
from documentation, and I this time I failed to find any info.

Take care -
