I needed do edit a message of an archive today, so i did the change, and saved it. Later, i had to run the bin/arch script to regenerate the archive of the list i had to edit a message. Thats what i did, providing "bin/arch mylist [<mbox>].



It seems from what you say later that you used --wipe. In any case you should have.



Hm, i had to notice that :-(

Now, i have got a problem with that: The numeration of the mails got changed. All links which pointed to a specific mail don't work anymore, because it seems there -3633 after the arch'ing. Meaning: Mail 9659 got, after i had arched, 6026. I can't figure out, what caused it, but i still have the problem that the links are broken after this change. Is there any possiblity to get the numeration like it was before? Or is it possible to say the script, it has to start counting from Mail Number 3633, ( i mean giving the (first!) mail the number 3633, to get the old order) ?
I am really desesperating on this problem - As far, -s and -e can't help in this case.



I'm only guessing, but are there messages missing? it seems that the .mbox file was probably missing 3633 messages. Was the .mbox "started over" at some point? Is there an old .mbox file somewhere containing 3633 messages?

I can't look, because the archive is very big, as far, i can't remember of all mails we became on it :)
I looked in the archives/private/ directory, cd'ed to to mylist.mbox directory, but there was only the normal wikide-l.mbox.


This is really strange.. But I need the normal numeration back.

BTW: Is there an (official?) channel in IRC or somewhere where siteadmins could chat together and help other site admins?

Sincerly yours,
Ronny
