I am unable to rebuild the index and archive files for my installation of MT 2.661. This is a clean install, and has never successfully completed a rebuild.

MT.cgi seems to run correctly for all other operations - I can create and edit entries, it's writing into and out of the db, will accept templates, etc.

I've seen postings on this, but not a resolution. Is this a memory allocation issue with my hosting service?

Error log for index file rebuilds reads:

It looks to me like your server is cutting off the process due to memory issues.

And I think the archive error has to do with being disconnected from the database before the query is completed (as a result of being out of memory).

Thanks - that's what I thought, too.

I filed a support ticket on this with my hosting service - we'll see what they say about it.
