hi,

³ * DBRIDGE -,506 294 0
³ * DOGHOUSE 6 6 0
³ * ECHOLIST -,333 13 0
³ * ECHO_ADS 382 382 0

³ * FDN_ANNOUNCE -2 3,598 0
³ * FIDO-REQ -3 5,112 0
³ * FIDOGAZETTE -,121 472 0

that's how it looks. mbbsutil -fixindex take no effect on this. filesystem is clean and not corrupt.

and the reason why i post this issue here is... guess... yes... i can't
enter, read or post msg-areas with this issue and ALL other mystic support areas are affected.

hope someone has an idea how i can solve this without loosing data - thx!

mbbsutil -fixindex isn't related to message bases and shouldn't be ran unless there is a very good reason to.

I would say back up those files and pack your message bases, but if you have corrupt files on your disk there usually isn't a whole lot that can be done to fix them outside of restoring backups. If you want to ZIP up some of the JAM files from your MSGS folder and e-mail mysticbbs@gmail.com I can take a look at them.
