G'day, There was a report of a similar problem a while back, although it manifested itself slightly differently, from what I gather. It seems like the repository name gets screwed up somewhere along the line - I've got no idea why this only seems to occur in the occasional installation, however.
I've included the text of the original message describing this problem below. ciao Daz > From: Chris Burkey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, 17 August 2001 12:42 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: stuck emails > > > Noticed some stuck emails when we use POP3 with this config option: > > <inboxRepository> > <repository destinationURL="file://var/mail/inboxes/" > type="MAIL"> > </repository> > </inboxRepository> > > I tracked the problem down to: > > org.apache.avalon.cornerstone.blocks.masterstore.AbstractFileRepository > > public void initialize() throws Exception { > m_name = RepositoryManager.getName(); > m_extension = "." + m_name + getExtensionDecorator(); > > ... > > What this does is use a new repository extension each time the JVM is > reloaded in James.
