Why didn't my paper appear on archive?

[robousy]

Hi,

I submitted a paper to archive recently (xxx.lanl.gov) which was accepted I received an email notifying me that it was due to appear yesterday at 20.00.

It did not appear and I did not receive an email saying that it had been rejected so I'm a little confused.

Any ideas?

Their holiday schedule has put many of the papers behind ...

 

[robousy]

so it was wrong to re-submit?

Something is wrong then. The holiday schedule doesn't affect them because it is done almost automatically.

You should have been given some sort of a reference number when you submitted. Use that to check the status of your submission. Also, is this your first paper submitted to Arxiv? If it is, you are usually required to get an endorser.

On the other hand, did you look at the Holiday Schedule announcement? Did you submit your manuscript on any of the dates mentioned?

Well, I got this email after I submitted:
---------------------------------------
To verify abstract and postscript, use http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0512146
PaperId: gr-qc/0512146, PaperPassword: gzx5v (access still password restricted)
Abstract will appear in mailing scheduled to begin at 20:00 Monday
US Eastern time (i.e., Tue 27 Dec 05 01:00:00 GMT).
---------------------------------------

I received no further emails and the paper did not appear. Instead another paper now turns up with the same number from another author.
