Hi, could you send me the following
tellnews status
tellnews showmem
directory listing of the fts directory
expire.conf
fts.conf
dnews.conf
And I'll check the configs etc and see if I can see a likely cause, Lastly
I need to know how much ram your system has and how big the page file
is.
(Fts is memory hungry so it could simply be short of memory, although
it may be a memory leak in fts)
