• More archiver fun

    From Poindexter Fortran@VERT to All on Wed Sep 28 07:24:00 2016
    A while back I ran into a problem where I couldn't create a QWK packet
    on the BBS, and changed my Compressible file settings in SCFG.

    Downloading a QWK file via telnet works, but when I try to download
    a packet via FTP, I get a message that there's no QWK packet and see
    the following in the logs:

    9/28 07:15:24a QWK pack semaphore signaled: c:\sbbs\data\pack0001.now
    9/28 07:15:24a Packing QWK Message Packet for Poindexter Fortran

    (249 msgs/sec)
    9/28 07:15:26a No packet created (no new messages)

    Is there another place I need to look for a setting for QWK downloads
    via FTP? They work via telnet, as I mentioned. My compressible command
    line is %@zip -jD %f %s and seems to work for telnet.

    Thanks!

    The Terminal Server performs all QWK packet creation and extraction/import. The FTP server just signals (via semaphore) the Terminal Server (event thread) requesting that it create a QWK packet for a particular user. So if the Terminal Serer can zip the QWK packet for Telnet users, it should be able to do so for FTP users too. If you increase your log level output to Debug (for the Terminal Server) you should be able to see more details about the creation of QWK packets/zipping.

    I changed the log level to debugging, and still can't create a QWK packet via FTP, but can via telnet. Here's the log entry for Telnet and QWK, respectively, with debugging log level.

    Are you logged into the Terminal Server at the same time that you're trying to download a QWK packet via FTP? If so, that's likely the problem. The QWK packet creation code specifically disallows "offline" QWK packet creation while a user is logged into the Terminal Server due to new-message-scan pointer confusion (the last user to log-off would "win the race").

    The problem seems to have gone away after a reboot. Fingers crossed.

    I don't think the reboot had anything to do with it. If you were logged into the Terminal Server (i.e. via Telnet, SSH, RLogin) at the same time as the FTP-download attempt, that would explain it.

    Sure, but it only has to do with QWK packet creation and only if the *same* user is logged into the Terminal Server and the FTP server concurrently.

    I think that is only for internal use. If I remember correctly it will not create outbounds. I use HTick here. It was a bit of a pig to set up, but with some help I got it working. That was about 6 or so years ago. Have not touched it since. Might break something :) I also have the original Tic. Works well also.

    I've managed to get Tickit somewhat working with 3.16c. I'm only using it for inbound files anyway, not forwarding them on.

    There's a tic processing script in CVS called "TickIt" (exec/tickit.js). It probably requires that run the current development version of sbbs.

    I'm pretty sure tickit doesn't handle downlinks. I use htick for that reason. It really is easy to setup as long as you have the correct switches for sbbsecho in your incoming mail batch file.

    Here is the beginning of my bat to process incoming...

    @echo off

    cd c:\sbbs\exec

    echo.
    echo.
    echo ***** Process inbound mail

    sbbsecho -LESRFD! > c:\sbbs\events\inerror.log < Step 1

    CD c:\husky

    htick -c htick.cfg scan


    Here is what the log entry looks like for Step 1

    SBBSecho v3.00-Win32 (rev 3.20) - Synchronet FidoNet EchoMail Tosser

    htick scan will then scan any *.msg in your secure and if it finds a filefix message, it will process it and drop a reply in your outbound netmail folder in a *.msg format where sbbsecho will convert it when it you run FIDOOUT. Here are my switches for that:

    sbbsecho -FLIND > c:\sbbs\events\outerror.log

    I'm pretty sure tickit doesn't handle downlinks. I use htick for that reason. It really is easy to setup as long as you have the correct switches for sbbsecho in your incoming mail batch file.

    I'll have to take a closer look later, I'm a bit brain dead tonight. :(

    I've managed to get Tickit somewhat working with 3.16c. I'm only
    using it for inbound files anyway, not forwarding them on.

    If that is all you need, then that is sufficient I guess.

    Would be different if I was using Synchronet as a hub, or had downlinks, such as points.

    So you need a different TIC processor. :-)

    Indeed, but, I set this up years ago. The software I am using is ancient I guess, but I dont know how easy it is to update. My Htick.exe is from 2003 <G> --- SBBSecho 3.00-Win32
