Update-Problem(INN-2.2.2 -> INN-2.3.3)

[Marcus Assion]

Hi everybody,

I have a problem with updating from INN-2.2.2 to INN-2.3.3.
I'm running INN on SunOS 5.8, sun4u sparc box.

Starting INN-2.3.3 over /usr1/news/inn-2.3.3/bin/rc.news produces the
following error:

Nov 27 11:35:56 hahn innd: [ID 506251 news.crit] SERVER cant dbzinit 
/usr1/news/inn-2.3.3/db/history Argument out of domain


What I have done
================
I'd kept the old PATHDB-Files to reject the news that I already
have, therefore I copied active, history, history.dir, history.pag,
localgroups and newsgroups from my INN-2.2.2 PATHDB into the new one.

That's how my new PATHDB looks like:

hahn news 257 ( inn-2.3.3/db ) >

I touched the history file and created the other history files, which ends
with "original", with makedbz -i.

The value of ovmethod is "tradindexed", pathoverview is "/var/spool/news/overview"
(overview-dir from INN-2.2.2) and overviewname is ".overview".

So if anyone can give me a hint or tell me where I get more
information, please let me know.


Yours sincerly,
M. Assion
