We found that the problem N1 is in NewsgroupExporter.java:

285                    ForumMessage m = getForumManager().getMessage(forumMessage.getID());

We receive NPE here, because ForumManager is Null

NNTP integraion is very important for us. We'd appreciate if you could provide an urgent fix for us that we can use.

If you can let us know where to make changes in the code, this is fine.

Thanks in advance,

-S.

Ok, thanks, it's the same solution as I done yesterday. It works.

When will you integrate this into release build of Clearspace ?

Also I've done following with NewsgroupsExporter.java to fix ugly html messages in NNTP readers:

800:        else {
                //message.setText(body.toString(), getMimeCharacterEncoding());
                message.setContent(body.toString(), "text/html");
            }

and (to fix Sent Date in Outlook Express):

//        SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss z",
//                java.util.Locale.US);
        SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z",
                java.util.Locale.US);

And last question: Is it possible to get plain/text message from Clearspace to post it to NNTP ?

Some clients can't read HTML body at all.

Thanks,

Sergey

Ok, thank you, it works!

But I see some troubles with this formatter like following message.

Is there any possible to remove "font" section and keep line breaks ?

Thanks,

Thank you for the hint.

I see you told me wrong function in the first message. The right conversion done by WikiContentHelper.contentBodyToMessageText().

So now I'm attaching the patch for NewsgroupExporter.java for CS 2.5.4 with my changes.

Look them please, it will be great if you merge them into your product.

We're widely using NNTP gateways and we coldn't use them without these patches.

Some comments to make this patch understandable:

1. Changed text/html export to text/plain with right conversion.

2. Added a little bit log records to find messages which breaks NNTP exports.

3. Added code to split long strings into 300 chars pieces, because NNTP server doesn't accepts very long lines.

4. Added code to simple check user's email if he doesn't hide it and prefer to post to NNTP. If this email has wrong format, it changes to defaultEmail(), because NNTP server doesn't allow wrong emails.

5. Fixed NPE with ForumManager.

6. Changed Date format in the message to make them viewable by Outlook Express. It doesn't breaks other clients.

I hope you add these changes into your product, because it's heavy to patch it before every update.
