First attempt at creating a filelist for any list on my server and
I am not having much success. Here's what I've done. Can anyone
tell me where I've gone wrong?
1. Updated LISTSERV FILELIST to add my new filelist definition.
PUT LISTSERV FILELIST PW=secret
with the following new record
TEST-L FILELIST OWN OWN . . . . . List of files for TEST-L list
Listserv told me this was successfully stored, and I can retrieve
a copy and see that the . . . . . fields were updated (e.g nrecs=0)
So far, so good.
2. Sent a new filelist for TEST-L to listserv
PUT TEST-L FILELIST PW=secret
with some comment records and the following:
TEST-L WELCOME OWN OWN . . . . . Welcome message for TEST-L list
Listserv told me this was successfully stored, but when I retrieve
it, the TEST-L WELCOME records looks exactly as I keyed it. That
is to say, the . . . . . fields were not update at all.
Looks like something has gone wrong already, and that's confirmed
in step 3...
3. When I try to PUT TEST-L WELCOME, listserv tells me:
File "TEST-L WELCOME" is unknown to LISTSERV, PUT request rejected.
For the record, I'm running 1.8b on VM/ESA
