First, please set gmail to not post HTML when posting to this list, and preferably to any similar list. There's a reason pan doesn't handle HTML, many consider it a security issue, and raw HTML just looks ugly. That said, you're not the first and won't be the last to do it; many don't even realize they are. Back on topic... That error is likely an old and now probably stuck task. You should see a tasks.nzb file, pan's method of storing its tasks to disk and a standard *.nzb format file, in the new location. You should be able to edit it to point to the new location as appropriate. Thanks for mentioning these. They'll certainly help the next time something like this comes up as I didn't have any unfinished tasks when I switched directories so didn't see this one. As for the server file, when I moved directories it was to split pan into multiple instances, binary, text, and test. Thus, I either manually edited that due to the split or setup servers from scratch for each instance, so didn't see a problem there either. Now that I'm aware of them I can warn people about them the next time this comes up. =8^) > 2. Error setting spellchecker: aspell: No word lists can be found for > the language "en_US". Have no idea about this. IIRC that's set using the LANG environmental variable, but en_US is the likely default if it's unset. Did you have spell-check working before? You mentioned uk.*, do you prefer en_GB (or whatever it is) for spelling or en_US, or ??? If you haven't, you'll need to install the correct dictionary. I assume the dictionary is the same regardless of MS or *ix platform, but wasn't aware until now that the MS platforms port even had the option ported. Travis is one of the regulars here that runs pan on MSWindows. It's likely he can better answer some of these questions, and there are a few others as well, that don't seem to reply as often as he does. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
