Thanks for reply.

Please see the FAQ at
    http://www.gnu.org/software/gnats/doc/faq/gnats-faq_3.html#SEC12
Gosh. I forgot that document.
Okay I will read that.

In short: "initialize" the new database, and create a separate
set of mail aliases.

The FAQ forgets to mention that you must enter the new mail
address in new-db-dir/gnats-adm/config (GNATS_ADDR=...).  I'll
update this.
Yes, that's the point. I forgot to change the gnats-adm/config file.
Also forgot the new mail aliases and the new cron. I really should have read your FAQ before. sorry.

That's probably because you use the mail aliases of the old
database.
Yes. Quite right.


I am confused by this.

Are you sure the entry in gnats-db.conf points to the right
directory?  Does the new directory contain gnats-adm,
gnats-queue, and the sub-directories for the categories?

Does everything in the new db directory belong to the gnats user
(and is readable and writeable by it)?
Just forget it, please. I made a stupid mistake. I just copy the old DB directory to the new one. And I removed all useless category directories. I also changed the categories and responsible files. But I forgot remove the index and current files in gnats-admin directory. So when I make query in gnatsweb the PRs in my old DB was checked out. Sorry.


I am running 3.111, with multiple databases.  So I can confirm
that it works, even with pre-4.0. :-)

Oh. It's so great to hear that. That give me more confidence.


Internationalization is on the agenda only for post-4.0, sorry.


Never mind. I will do what I have done on Gnats4 when I get time.
I may send a patch to gnats project when I feel it's good enough.

Thanks again.
