Hi everyone,

I have an echomail issue. Exported echomail is not going out, but inbound echomail is coming in fine.

I check mutil.log and it says:
Process: Exporting EchoMail
Waiting for BUSY nodes

I know this issue has been discussed before, but the advice I found from older conversations was to type ./fidopoll killbusy all, but I'm using the latest alpha (a46) and the file "fidopoll" no longer exists in this version.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks!

Thank you!

I did that and the issue still persists (echomail not going out, and mutil.log still says "Waiting for BUSY nodes."

Do you know what else can cause that? I'm using Linux, latest alpha of Mystic.

Try shutting down mis and try that command again.

I'm not sure if that will help but it might.

In addition to what the Original Al said while the BBS is down and after you run mis poll killbusy go into the semaphore folder you will see a file called poll.bsy kill that also. That will solve your issue...

Thanks everyone, for the suggestions for my echomail issue.

I tried ./mis poll killbusy all, then I polled for mail again & ran mutil, but I checked the log and it still says "Waiting for BUSY nodes."

I also tried polling for mail/running mutil with a fresh install of Mystic and even then, the mutil.log says "Waiting for BUSY nodes."

Could it be a linux permissions issue? I'm not an expert at setting permissions and/or ownerships.

Could you go into:

./mystic -cfg
Servers -> Logging Options
In both 1: MIS.LOG & 2: poll.log
Set "Log Level" to "Max" for both.

And then try polling again.

What does the line that says "Waiting for BUSY nodes" look like? Does it have a "1-S:" or "1-R:" in front of it?

If it has 1-R: (or any number-R:) in front of it, it means your hub is sending you that message & would need to be dealt with on that end.

Maybe post that section of your poll.log here and we have have a look to try and figure out what's going on.

After you do that, don't forget to go back in and set your log levels back to "Normal".

Hmm... what does your .ini file look like for ExportEchoMail?

[ExportEchoMail]
; Do not export messages from users currently online
skip_online = false

If this is set to true it won't allow your messages to be exported until you log off.

During the time when this problem started (the problem of being unable to export echomail) I did not change anything in mutil.ini and I have not changed anything since then either. It just stopped working one day out of the blue.

It might have happened in wake of a mystic update, or I may have changed folder permissions and/or ownership (would that have anything to do with it?)

For permissions, go to your mystic root directory:

sudo chown -R user:group *

"user:group" being the actual user and group you run Mystic with. -R to make sure it recurses into subdirectories. And sudo to force the issue in case it won't let you change permissions of any one file under the mystic directory.

Also, I don't know if this still applies to the latest versions, but you could take a look in your mystic/data directory for "chat#.dat" I believe it's called (# would be replaced by an actual number, ie: chat1.dat), and delete it. I think that was an old ongoing issue that caused ghost nodes.

Try posting the whole log here. It might be the hub you're trying to connect to that's giving that error. If that's the case, there's nothing you can do to fix it.

I have been reading this thread for a few days now. Please follow these steps 1. Shut down your BBS so it is not running waiting for calls.
2. In your BBS directory do a search for *.bsy
3. I am guessing there is .bsy files in echomail folders. Please delete any and all *.bsy files.
4. Restart Mystic -Server
5. Now, jump to a shell and then the BBS directory and do a MIS Poll XXXX and verify you are connecting to your Target Host.

If, this fails, Please reach out to me via email. rickdeluco@gmail.com and I will be more than happy to remote into your windows system and resolve.
If this is linux or RPI, sorry I know nothing about linux.

Cheers for Sunny Florida !

Have you checked in your semaphore directory for poll.bsy? With the BBS DOWN delete that file, it will fix you right up.. You are getting the waiting for busy nodes because MIS poll thinks the BBS is currently polling..

Ok .. this is on the right track .. There is several folders there that contain your FTN node names. please look in the Mystic/echomail/out directory ... inside each one of the folders there please check for any .BSY files.. Also, in the Mystic/semaphore directory, there should be three files (maybe) mis.bsy and nodeinfo.now

If you shut down the Mystic -Server and look again these file should go away. If not Delete them all.

Then restart and they should be recreated clean.

I am betting the Linux box got a reboot with the Mystic running and left a .BSY open. This has happened to be on a Windows box.

It says "Waiting for BUSY nodes" as well, but is still exporting messages. So that may not be the reason you're not exporting messages.

In:
./mystic -cfg
System Paths -> Message Base Path

Does that match where your message base paths are when you edit a message base in:
Editors -> Message Base Editor -> (select message base) -> Path

Sorry about that. I either mistook you for someone else, or forgot what BBS you ran. :)

Either way, I would look a little deeper into your logs, maybe set them to the max log capabilities. The "Waiting for busy nodes" thing may not be an error, as seen by others posting their logs that say the same thing, but packets are still going out.

Is this a new setup? Or did you have things working and you changed something causing things to stop working?j

If it's Mystic, check your links in 'mystic -cfg' and see if they're still there. I had an issue once where they all disappeared on me for no apparant reason.

Otherwise, we probably need more information from your logs.

Nick

I'll do that. Maybe there is something else causing it.

I had echomail working fine for a few years, but one day I noticed that my messages weren't going out. It might have happened after a Mystic update, or it might have happened after I restored the BBS from a backup, but I don't know. I have a node number on Fido, fsxnet, and on Metronet, and test messages won't go out on any of them, which makes me think it's on my end.

So if I remember right, you can check two places. One would be "Uplinks" under each individual message base, and make sure your network uplink is still listed there. The other place would be "Echomail Nodes" to see if your uplinks are still listed there.

I only mention this because at one point when I upgraded Mystic all of my "Echomail Nodes" disappeared for whatever reason - and I had to re-add them all.

I have lost the entrance to my man cave, there was a large box of floppy disks stored on a nearby shelf that tumbled and blocked/hid the
entrance. I've spent the last few months trying to dig it out but then
got called away by my wife who needed me on BBQ duties and when I got
back I forgot where the entrance was <--- some of this may not be strictly true, well most of it really, but we do have a BBQ :)

lol! Get your mining helmet on and start digging. Good Luck :)

What do you mean by "links?"

So if I remember right, you can check two places. One would be "Uplinks" under each individual message base, and make sure your network uplink is still listed there. The other place would be "Echomail Nodes" to see if your uplinks are still listed there.

Oh ok, I checked everything in settings, and the paths are all correct

I appreciate your help with this issue, and I thank you and everyone else who assisted. I'm giving up on it.

Local message bases can be fun also! ;)

I don't think I said anything about paths above.
