Two important problems with GWIA

Question

I have two major problems in GroupWise 8 SP2 with the latest HP.
First, something I arose at another facility with HP2 and that in this new server with HP3 still happens, the file is lost gwac.db every 5 days at 0 hours exactly. Something I could fix with a script manager to create a backup file every 15 minutes to restore it if it is deleted. While it solves is not neat and not find what you send to delete the file.
And second, that only happens to me with the HP3 is with respect to uid.run, each time I stop the service leaves gwia file as if it was running. My solution was to use the same script gwac.db that by lowering the lift service and delete the file uid.run, but obviously this is not neat.

Answer 1

I'm not certain about the second issue but the first is a shoe in...
Look at the working directory and you have set that to be the
wpgate/gwia folder - and that is where the temp files are stored. It
will not delete the temp files before they are 5 days old...
Change the work directory (or better still just delete the string and
let the GWIA decide) and the problem will stop.
This should also have happened in NetWare, but there is a bug that
stops it...
