I have been using Inn and Newsx for years without problem until I decided
to upgrade them both when installing a new server. I suspect it is an Inn
2.x related problem as although Newsx does compile and run, when running
configure it comes up with this:
End result:
NOTE: Could not find a libinn
This might create problems for INN 2.x
The configure command line is :
./configure --with-newsconfig=/usr/local/news/lib/innshellvars \
--with-newslib=/usr/local/news/lib \
--with-newshome=/usr/local/news \
Both libinn.a and libstorage.a are in /usr/local/news/lib but Newsx
doesn't seem to see them even with the --with-newslib option.
If there are articles to go out when newsx runs it complains about being
unable to find Storage-API and the articles do not get posted.
As I said, I have written a small perl script which uses Inn's sm
(commandline interface to the storage manager) to extract the article
filenames from the token stored in the batch file and then uses Net::NNTP
to post the article to the upstream server. It works but wouldn't be good
for anything more than a few local posts at a time as it calls sm for each
article in the batch file.
