Hello Gents:

Suddenly my state.txt is missing; therefore gmail can`t start. Can somebody tell me what I might have done wrong and how to fix it?

Thank you, pcurran

You deleted it by mistake?

Get it from the install.dat tar file and upload it to your server. WinZip should work on the install.dat file if you rename it to install.tar.

It inherits from common/state.txt. What do you mean "gmail can't start".

I did the tar xvf and only found the copies the "~/gmail/data/admin/templates/state.txt , language.txt".
I copied them over to the nessa/brewt templates and things seems to be working find. I hope these were the right copies.

Well, thanks again as always, pyc

Hello Adrian:

Okay I got it:
The "state.txt , language.txt, etc." files are inherited from the common directory.
I removed the common directly by mistake. I have copied it back and everything is now working fine.

I was moving templates directories in the backup area so that I could only have the default template (I think, I was thinking about 2.1.1).
But I realize that one can set the default template in the "admin panal", which makes it unneccessay to remove any templates from where they are.

Well thanks again, pcurran
