Wilson,

Things have been going along so great that I hate to contemplate what might happen after the remodel is done.

If I remember right, though, the new language ought to make it easier to write the code to parse the messages.

All the best,

Scott

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ is what I have.  Just refreshed it.

Sorry to be annoying... can you go to your MyOlympus group online and check the URL?

I've tried to download it and I still can't.

The URL I see is http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/

Cheers,

 Wilson.

Yes - all 7 groups are updating.  Still working on downloading the 120K message group.

Is your MyOlympus group working as well?

Cheers,

 Wilson.

Haven't tried that - doesn't matter any more, as I'm almost done downloading.

Hi,

 Can you send me a screenshot of how it looks when you get the error and the names of a couple of groups so I can try and download them here.

 My email address is wilson (at) wilsonlogan.com

Cheers,

 Wilson.

Hi,

 This sort of thing used to happen a lot in the past. Yahoo would update a limited number of servers as a test and then decide they didn't like the change and roll it back. About 5 years ago this was a weekly occurance. Nowadays its a thankfully infrequent occurance. Just damn annoying when you happen to be the person its happening to!

Regarding the database... have you tried File--> Compact Database?   It doesn't mention it in the title but the Compact function also does a repair if required.

Cheers,

 Wilson. 

For whatever reason, it started working again today.  When I started up PGOffline, all (new) members and messages started downloading.  Get Groups list works now.  Unfortunately the database appears to be corrupt (won't save messages).  Starting over.  Deleted all groups, uninstalled PGOffline, copied database over from PGOLite (saved one 100K message group), refreshing "missing" groups.  The only thing that hurts is the 120k+ message group.  Ouch.

I'm going to break up my groups and save backups.  Guess I should have been doing that.  Still would like to know what happened.

I know this error is pretty vague.

I started getting this a while back, I have not been able to get my group messages for a while now.  My internet connection is fine, I can log on to the groups manually through my web browser, the program says "authorization accomplished" implying it has a good connection.

I just cannot get messages or the members for any of my groups.  They are adult groups if this makes a difference.  Has Yahoo changed something lately?

I am using version 3.0.84
