Problem with sparrow.list about sparrow HOT 14 CLOSED

I have adjusted the code so that the error message is printed when sparrow can't open spl file for read, d81e679 , hopefully it will give us more details if error occur again.

Greetings.
Try sparrow index update first.
Does file /home/xxx/sparrow.list exist?

from sparrow.

Hi! Weird. Try to manually create the file and then run "sparrow plg search ssh"

touch /home/xxx/sparrow.list

Does it help?

Hi Spigell & melezhik!
I went with both your suggestions but no luck. I still get the same error messages.
also 'sparrow.list' is an empty file & is still so after using 'touch'.

Provide plz permission attributes of the file
stat /home/xxx/sparrow.list
In normal situation it will be 0644.

and look closer on ownership of the file.

'sparrow.list' is actually 0664. Shall I chmod it?

from sparrow.

it belongs to me...

this is interesting: without any intervention on my behalf, sparrow commands are now as they should be. Everything works. Bizarre...

Hi @horse-latitudes, thanks for feedback. By the way which version of Sparrow do you use?

from sparrow.

I installed Sparrow via cpanm yesterday after Gugod, author of perlbrew, mentioned you. HTH...

Indeed , after thorough investigation, I found it was a bug. As sparrow does not create index file if it does exist, hopefully this commit deal with it. 37b4140
