  It's possible that the two database files for a newsgroup (nnn.x and
  nnn.d) don't exist.  Go into nnadmin and force a recollect of the
  newsgroup.  Most of the newsgroups (which are missing nnn.x and
  nnn.d files) after the first problem newsgroup might be
  automatically collected without a problem.  If there are a large
  number of these problem groups, it might be easier just to rebuild
  the whole database: kill nnmaster, run "./inst INIT" as root in the
  source directory and restart nnmaster.

  If the group in question has too many articles (>4000), it will
  cause older NNTP implementations to choke (see "Why does nnmaster
  stop collecting articles at the "junk" group?" for a fix).

  These are not relevant if you use NOV and not nnmaster.
