Folks,
I have set up a new Mailman server with the HTDig patches. It all works 
fine on a small list.
I can send email and I see it in the archives etc.

When I brought over a list from my other Mailman system and when I run 
/bin/arch I get the following error.

2001-November
*** malloc[311]: error: Can't allocate region
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/local/mailman/bin/arch", line 129, in ?
     main()
   File "/usr/local/mailman/bin/arch", line 118, in main

   File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py", line 526, in 
processUnixMailbox
     a = articleClass(m, self.sequence)
   File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py", line 207, in 
__init__
     self.__super_init(message, sequence, keepHeaders)
   File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py", line 223, in 
__init__
     self.body = message.fp.readlines()
   File "/usr/local/lib/python2.1/mailbox.py", line 66, in readlines
     line = self.readline()
   File "/usr/local/lib/python2.1/mailbox.py", line 59, in readline
     data = self.fp.readline(length)
MemoryError

When I run HTDig on the small test list it runs ok. When I run it on 
the large list I get this error.

[seolist1:~/bin] mailman% /usr/local/bin/python -S 
/usr/local/mailman/cron/nightly_htdig
error 13:mkstemp errorhtmerge: Word sort failed

I was wondering if I need more memory or if there are other problems.

thanks,
