You need to do this with email as per the manual (http://www.lsoft.com/manuals/1.8e/sitemgr/sitemgr.html#_Toc90173293). Basically, you put the command as the first line in the message body and the text of the archive file (log0503b in this case) starts on the very next line. Note that if you use a mailer that wants to format the text, you will change the archive file, so be careful. ... > The web site is located at c:\localhost\www\archives.

The list directories for the WA index files occur under the c:\localhost\www\archives directory. For example, the Technews list would be located at the c:\localhost\www\archives\technews. andrew -----Original Message----- From: LISTSERV site administrators' forum [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Andrew Bosch Sent: Thursday, April 07, 2005 11:54 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Recreating Web Archives Your quandry appears to be a typical archive moving issue. To recreate the index files, you need to repost the archive files with the PUT <listname> LOGxxxx command. You also need to create the WA index directories (usually they are the same name as the list), if they do not already exist. Note that Listserv will not allow you to post a file that does not already exist, so you need to create empty files with the same names as the archive files before posting. andrew >>> [log in to unmask] 4/7/2005 11:34:36 AM >>> I'm VERY new to ListServ, and I of course did a stupid thing. I've had a list going now for 3 weeks, and it's been running smoothly. I switched from IIS to Apache, and in recreating all the Web stuff, and moving the directories for the Apache Web Server, I blew away all the Web Archive stuff for my list. Is there *any* way to recreate these? Or will I just have to delete the list and start from scratch? I have all the notebook files, and the list still works fine, but all the web access stuff is gone. I know, I know, I did a bad thing! Thanks! Greg
