Hello Yukata, i've some strange problem with your great software on WinNT. Well, delegate doesn't like my DGROOT parameter when expiring. My service starts like this: delegated -PXXXX +=conf conf: ... DGROOT=d:/proxy ... (I've also tried d:\proxy) The log: 03/18 00:01:01.96 [115] 0+0: --INITIALIZATION START: 7.9.1 on WindowsNT-- 03/18 00:01:02.00 [115] 0+0: <DeleGate/7.9.1 by ysato@delegate.org> [115] -P3128 READY^M 03/18 00:01:02.00 [115] 0+0: OWNER=nobody => OWNER=?/?(?/?) 03/18 00:01:02.09 [115] 0+0: env[22] LIBPATH=.:C:\WINNT\system32:d:/proxy/lib:D:\proxy (...) 03/18 00:01:02.09 [115] 0+0: ext[1] DGROOT=d:/proxy 03/18 00:01:02.09 [115] 0+0: ext[2] DGOPTS=-vt (...) 03/18 00:01:02.09 [115] 0+0: ext[14] CACHE=do 03/18 00:01:02.09 [115] 0+0: ext[15] EXPIRE=1h:http 03/18 00:01:02.09 [115] 0+0: ext[16] EXPIRE=2h:ftp 03/18 00:01:02.09 [115] 0+0: ext[17] LOGFILE=[date+%y%m%d]_${PROTO}.log 03/18 00:01:02.09 [115] 0+0: ext[18] PROTOLOG=[date+%y%m%d]_${PROTO}.log:%C %D %r %u %S 03/18 00:01:02.10 [115] 0+0: ext[19] ERRORLOG=[date+%y%m%d]_errors.log 03/18 00:01:02.10 [115] 0+0: ext[20] TRACELOG=[date+%y%m%d]_ptrace.log 03/18 00:01:02.10 [115] 0+0: ext[21] CRON=0 5 * * * -expire 1 03/18 00:01:02.10 [115] 0+0: arg[1] LIBPATH=.:d:/proxy:d:/proxy/lib:. 03/18 00:01:02.10 [115] 0+0: arg[2] DGROOT=d:/proxy 03/18 00:01:02.14 [115] 0+0: DELEGATE_Modified[0]: 3c909ed4 03/18 00:01:02.14 [115] 0+0: --INITIALIZATION DONE-- As you see, I set up even twice. :) With normal loglevel, I have the following line in the log: 03/14 09:52:05.21 [272] 0+0: FAILED DGROOT=d:/proxy Delegate finds its files nevertheless in normal operation (including DGROOT/CACHE), but the CRON tries to expire in \var\spool\... I might have missed something, but have no idea what this could be. Bye, MM
