I do not know exactly what the original history error was, but once I
went through your proceedure a number of times, it came good, but....
The version I have is 2.3.3 and history setup is
touch history
makedbz -i
mv history.n.* history.*
The limits error was because I added a newsgroup by hand, which is a
no-no with the db. I used to do this before with the flat file history.
I think using makehistory after hand adding the newsgroup may have been
a factor.
With 2.3.3 and empty I have a history.dir/hash/index, but no pag yet.
I'm just trying to get suck to feed some stuff into it atm.
BTW, it doesn't like innd start either. I guess there has been some
version changes.
Thanks for assistance.
