Hey DM,

I've followed the posts from Nigel/You regarding 3.20 being upgraded from 3.19 and some QWK message areas being messed up..

I've created a new system, compiled today "ALTTEST", and upgraded my test environment - which is essentially a "blank" synchronet with very little config. Until today it didnt receive any DOVENET.

In my testing with qnet-http, I've noticed mail exported from ALTERANT to ALTTEST the messages are posted to the wrong subs.

I've checked the sub numbers on ALTERANT (that is used for VERT), together with the sub numbers in ALTTEST (and via msgs.ini) and I cannot see an error.

Today, I went onto ALTERANT and back dated Synchronet Discussion so that I would receive 20 messages for ALTTEST. ALTTEST got those 20 (and 2 more from another sub):

Jan 23 23:39:34 d-11-1 synchronet: evnt packQWK <ALTTEST> Packing QWK Message Packet
Jan 23 23:39:34 d-11-1 synchronet: evnt packQWK <ALTTEST> scanned 50 sub-boards for new messages
Jan 23 23:39:34 d-11-1 synchronet: evnt packQWK <ALTTEST> packed 22 messages (29.2K bytes) in 1 seconds (22 msgs/sec)
Jan 23 23:39:34 d-11-1 synchronet: evnt packQWK <ALTTEST> libarchive created /opt/sbbs/data/file/0028.qwk from 3 files
Jan 23 23:39:34 d-11-1 synchronet: evnt packQWK <ALTTEST> Packing completed: /opt/sbbs/data/file/0028.qwk

But when it imported them, they went into the wrong areas:

synchronet: evnt QNET QNET-HTTP 1.3 invoked with options: ALTERANT alterant.dege.lan TEST1234 [15/9286]
synchronet: evnt QNET Getting /opt/sbbs/data/ALTERANT.qwk

synchronet: evnt QNET !smb_addmsg duplicate Message-ID: <63CBD5F5.531.dove-syncdisc@trmb.synchro.net> found in message #51

....

(The duplicate Message-ID error is expected, since I had done this previously.)

As you can see, ALTTEST is importing them into "Pro-Audio DIscussion".

What have I messed up?

(Oh, and I created a testing sub just between the two ALTs, with conference 9900 and those messages import correctly.)

Re: QWK - messed up posting
By: Digital Man to deon on Mon Jan 23 2023 10:55 pm

You previosly pasted here:

ALTTEST has:
[qhubsub:ALTERANT:2007]
sub=DOVE-SYNCDISC
settings=0x0

Which demonstrates that you have messages that download from the ALTERANT hub being imported into the DOVE-SYNCDISC sub. You need fix that by either hand editing the msgs.ini file or via SCFG->Networks->QWK->Hubs->ALTERANT. It may have been caused by the bug previously fixed that would mess up the mapping of subs for QWKnet hubs when a new message sub-board was inserted in SCFG before others.

So, I'm still confused.

ALTTEST (that receives the message) - as built *after* you committed the fix to the msgs.ini corruption. It was built with commit #cadada4df that fixes that issue (unless there is another one?).

When I go to SCFG->Networks->QWK->Hubs->ALTERANT it shows this for Sync Discussion:

³ Networked Sub-board ³ ÃÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
³Sub-board 0072:DOVE-Net Synchronet Discussion ³
³Conference Number 2007 ³
³Ctrl-A Codes Strip out ³

Which is consistent with what you pasted above (that happens to be in msgs.ini).

What am I changing? The conf number is the same - is that not the important item?

I've compared the "Internal Code" on both ALTERANT and ALTTEST (DOVE-SYNCDISC) and they are the same, and so is the "QWK Name" (SyncDiscus).

I dont know what needs a fixing.
