subject: errors and how to fix?

Hello, Tommi!

Tuesday December 06 2022 21:29, from Tommi Koivula -> Paul Hayton, in URL @OFGHIUrl:

 PH>> I'm starting to see this error in my logs
 PH>> A Dec:04:2022:21:23:21  JAM ERROR: wrongly sized subfield occured!
 PH>> is the base corrupt? How best to resolve?

The JAM base is definitely corrupted here, but the question is how you'vee ended up like this then?

 TK> I have seen the same.

Are you guys running some software not compatible with 64bit?
I remember seeing this with the original jamlib which was a part of jamnntpd for example, that only worked on 32-bit machines or you have to compile it with -m32 flag.

That sounds like a workaround in absence of the database fix utility.

Best Regards, Nil
