Subject: Cannot recover if gmane goes offline
Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2011 10:34:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87hb7yw0cx.fsf@member.fsf.org> (raw)
Hi all,
Lately, my gmane server frequently goes offline, or better, the gmane
nntp select method is shown as (offline) in the server buffer. I have
no clue why it's always Gmane while other nntp and IMAP servers don't
show that issue.
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
'(nntp "Gmane"
(nntp-address "news.gmane.org")))
Anyway, when I fetch new news then, all my gmane/gwene groups show up
with thousands of unread messages. Simply reopening the connection
using `O' in *Server* doesn't help; the unread (but actually read)
messages stay unread.
Restarting Gnus using `R' in *Group* or `q' followed by M-x gnus RET
doesn't help either. So the only solution that does work is restarting
emacs completely.
That's quite some pain, especially if you have open IRC buffers with
active discussions and stuff. Sure, I could fire up another emacs
instance for Gnus, but I like having all in one, so that I can easily
access all buffers.
Does anyone face the same troubles?
Bye,
Tassilo
