Download Latest Headers - Failed: 411 no such group

Postby Moondawgie » Thu Apr 05, 2018 12:01 am

Sometimes, currently with Newsbin 6.80RC7, when downloading the latest headers for all of my subscribed newsgroups, Newsbin will display the following errors:

"ERROR NEWS SERVER ERROR: Easynews SendCommand - Failed: 411 no such group
ERROR NEWS SERVER ERROR: Eweka SendCommand - Failed: 411 no such group"

It's obvious that Newsbin is informing me that one of my subscribed newsgroups no longer exists on the respective nntp servers.

Except for downloading latest headers for one newsgroup at a time, how can I determine which newsgroup(s) has/have been removed?

I remember that the display of such errors used to include the name(s) of the newsgroup(s), but no longer does. I'm almost certain that the selection of Normal, Verbose, or Debug for "State Tab Logging" caused the name of a newsgroup to be displayed. But changing that selection doesn't now prompt the display of the newsgroup.

Is that due to a change in Newsbin?

Or is there a setting which I've overlooked which will enable/disable the name of the newsgroup(s) being displayed?

Or have I been breathing the air in Southern California for far too long?

TIA

Turn on "Show Server Commands" in the network options. Then you can see the raw messages from the server. I'll look into adding the group to the base error message.
