I believed these were getting stuck because of the Mailman 2.1.5/python 2.4 "day of year out of range" issue, which I've seen logged and which I know is fixed in 2.1.6, but maybe something else was breaking and not being logged. On upgrade to 2.1.6b4, all of the bounce messages stuck in qfiles/bounce (1488 of them) were moved to qfiles/shunt and the following traceback logged in logs/error for each file: Feb 17 15:12:22 2005 (31261) SHUNTING: 1108670889.8425479+290d640542fcf19f6aef6711b3f9e60e2c419cb2 Feb 17 15:12:22 2005 (31261) Uncaught runner exception: 'str' object has no attribute 'get_sender' Feb 17 15:12:22 2005 (31261) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 111, in _oneloop self._onefile(msg, msgdata) File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 159, in _onefile sender = msg.get_sender() AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get_sender' Any idea what could cause this? Is this just an issue with 2.1.5 -> 2.1.6 bounces or qfiles in general? The 'make install' did take a while doing something to my qfiles at the end of the install process.

[ mailman-Patches-1123383 ] Daily Status Report script...

16 Feb '05

Patches item #1123383, was opened at 2005-02-15 21:14 Message generated for change (Comment added) made by tgc99 You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300103&aid=1123383&group_… Category: list administration Group: Mailman 2.1 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Brad Knowles (shub) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Daily Status Report script... Initial Comment: Folks, I quickly whacked together a Daily Status Report script for Mailman (using Bourne shell, not Python ;), and thought that other folks might be interested in seeing it. The basic concept is a program that gets fired off at 23:59 every night, and goes through a variety of log files looking for entries specific to that date, and indicating problems or certain types of activity that might be of interest to someone trying to administer the server. It also does an "ls -la" of /usr/local/mailman/qfiles/*, so that you can see what is in the queue at the time of the running of the script. My concept was that this daily report would get e-mailed to the admin, or posted to a "reports" mailing list, where they could be archived and kept for future reference. The script does not (yet) do any statistics calculations, although it should be relatively easy to hack together some basic stats using awk, sort, etc.... Anyway, I thought I'd share it and let folks take a look at it, and if anyone has any recommended improvements, we can incorporate those and share them back out with everyone. The code is written under a BSD-style license, so if you don't want to contribute any changes back to me, that's okay. Of course, I would prefer that you did, but I leave the choice up to you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tom G.
