  • Update.

    From Mark Hofmann@1:261/1304 to All on Fri Dec 6 18:59:52 2019

    Went through the process and after the upgrade to DB4, no filesize change at all to the dbridge.adf. It is the same exact size as my backed up version from
    sr45, just with an updated time/date stamp when I did the upgrade.

    If you export the configuration from SR45 or look at one of the backup files in Dbconfig.zip, can you please confirm if the numbering for the Echomail areas is sequential.

    Just confirmed it is sequential - but noticed that there are some numbers missing/skipped. After echo #126, it skips #127 and goes to #128. There are gaps between lots of the higher numbered echos - some skipping 3-4 numbers at a
    time.

    The other thing I noticed which is probably really old (based on the date of the messages), was some negative *.msg numbers in the message directories. I cleaned all that up a few days ago. I never purge anything here, so the counts
    are pretty high in some areas. I also cleaned that up as a hunch as to my my %RESCAN doesn't appear to work for nodes requesting it - since the negative message numbers might throw it for a loop.
