[Teammetrics-discuss] Never ending nntpstat problems

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Sukhbir,

seems nntpstat causes problems on each new month.  I cleaned up the
database on blends.debian.net and importet from scratch at the beginning
of month.  Commitstat and liststat went fine, but:

$ ./commitstat.py -u tille
$ ./liststat.py
$ ./nntpstat.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./nntpstat.py", line 353, in <module>
    main()
  File "./nntpstat.py", line 319, in main
    resp, article_id, msg_id, msg = conn.body(str(i))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/nntplib.py", line 433, in body
    return self.artcmd('BODY ' + id, file)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/nntplib.py", line 407, in artcmd
    resp, list = self.longcmd(line, file)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/nntplib.py", line 264, in longcmd
    return self.getlongresp(file)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/nntplib.py", line 235, in getlongresp
    resp = self.getresp()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/nntplib.py", line 214, in getresp
    resp = self.getline()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/nntplib.py", line 206, in getline
    if not line: raise EOFError
EOFError

According to the logfile this happens in

2011-12-04 04:45:24,637 INFO: Group 'gmane.linux.debian.user.german' has 262349 articles
2011-12-04 04:45:24,640 INFO: Fetching message bodies for articles 1 - 268122

Any ideas (besides cursing listmaster for not providing mboxes)?

Kind regards

        Andreas.
