Subject: Bug in v5.10.6 under xemacs21 not generating the *Group* buffer.
Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2004 16:37:06 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <oyd1xhu2931.fsf@bert.cs.rice.edu> (raw)
I'm not sure what the root cause of this is, but this version of gnus
seems to be trying to treat 'nntp as if it were "nntp". This causes an
error when trying to build the *Group* buffer and gnus never fully
initializes.
The backtrace is:
Signaling: (wrong-type-argument sequencep nntp)
mapcar(#<compiled-function (char) "...(8)" [char length gnus-char-width] 3> nntp)
gnus-correct-length(nntp)
(- 10 (gnus-correct-length gnus-tmp-news-method))
(let ((need ...)) (if (> need 0) (concat ... gnus-tmp-news-method nil) gnus-tmp-news-method))
(gnus-xmas-format " %s:%s\n" (let (...) (if ... ... gnus-tmp-news-method)) (let (...) (if ... ... gnus-tmp-news-server)))
(insert (gnus-xmas-format " %s:%s\n" (let ... ...) (let ... ...)))
(progn (insert (gnus-xmas-format "%s%s %s %s/%s: " ... ... gnus-group-indentation ... ...)) (gnus-put-text-property (point) (progn ... ...) gnus-mouse-face-prop gnus-mouse-face) (insert (gnus-xmas-format " %s:%s\n" ... ...)))
eval((progn (insert (gnus-xmas-format "%s%s %s %s/%s: " ... ... gnus-group-indentation ... ...)) (gnus-put-text-property (point) (progn ... ...) gnus-mouse-face-prop gnus-mouse-face) (insert (gnus-xmas-format " %s:%s\n" ... ...))))
gnus-group-insert-group-line("nntp+news.rice.edu:rice.majors.cs" 3 ((reply 932) (tick 932 963)) 61 "nntp:news.rice.edu")
gnus-group-prepare-flat(5 nil nil)
gnus-group-list-groups(nil)
gnus-group-get-new-news(nil)
call-interactively(gnus-group-get-new-news)
My select methods are:
(setq gnus-select-method
'(nnml ""
(nnml-directory "~/Mesg/NNML/")
(nnml-active-file "~/Mesg/NNML/active")
(nnml-newsgroups-file "~/Mesg/NNML/newsgroups"))
)
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'(
(nndraft ""
(nndraft-directory "~/Mesg/Drafts"))
(nntp "news.rice.edu")
;; (nntp "news.gmane.org")
))
I have a workaround that lets me read email, I am commenting out the
line '(nntp "news.rice.edu"). I would like to get nntp working
soon. This configuration is known-good for v5.8.8 which is what I used
until last night. I'm not subscribed, so please CC me on any replies.
Thanks for creating a great email reader!
Scott
