#37811: news/slrn 0.9.9p1 exhibits connection drops to servers ----------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: clint.olsen@… | Owner: olaf@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: slrn | ----------------------------+-------------------- Changes (by macsforever2000@…): * keywords: slrn => * owner: macports-tickets@… => olaf@… * cc: olaf@… (removed) * port: news/slrn => slrn Old description:

I was having difficulty maintaining connections to news.supernews.com with this version of slrn. I noticed there's a new version of slrn (1.0.1) that was released 12/2012. I tried that, and it seems to work fine. I think just refreshing the port might do the trick.

Example:

Run slrn and try to subscribe to comp.text.tex. Try to download all the current articles. It works for awhile and then:

slrn fatal error: Server connection to news.supernews.com lost. Cannot recover.
