Subject: No 'lib' directory under agent
Date: 30 Dec 1998 20:08:38 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m37lv9uf5l.fsf@reader.newsguy.com> (raw)
I've had the experience several times when setting up a new instance
of gnus, that some directories under ~/News are not generated when
gnus is run as they should be. Particularly the ~/News/agent/lib
directory is missing. So any attemp to write to the "categories"
file fails because their is no such file or `lib' directory.
Althougth running 0.66, I've seen this happen in several versions.
No problem to make the directory, but I wonder what might be wrong to
cause this.
What directorys should show up the first few times gnus is run?
What files should be in ~/News/agent/?
What should the structure look like when using only default settings?
~/News/"then what?"
Knowing what is supposed to be there might help analyze what is going wrong.
