Hi all,
since about two weeks or so, I frequently get this message when hitting
`g' in *Group*. Uni is my universities nntp server.
Warning: Refusing to do retrieval from Uni because a retrieval is already happening
Cannot read partial active file from nntp server.
When I close and reopen the server the message disappeares for some
time. How can I debug what's wrong?
It might be related to the fact that sometimes Gnus freezes while
fetching news during "nnimap read XXk" and I have to interrupt using
C-g, althougt that always happens with nnimap...
Bye,
Tassilo

I also get similar symptoms. I will try to get a proper backtrace next time.

Indeed, it seems to be caused by interrupting a frozen
`gnus-group-get-new-news' call using C-g. I've tried to get a backtrace
using `toggle-debug-on-error', but that doesn't put me in the debugger.

I use this:
(defadvice gnus-group-get-new-news (around gnus-timeout activate)
"Timeout for Gnus."
(with-timeout
(5 (message "Gnus timed out.") (debug))
ad-do-it))

This should hopefully be fixed by today's patches.

It seems so. I haven't had these errors for two days or so. That's
enough evidence for me.
Bye,
