Status: Deleted Resolution: Invalid Priority: 5 Submitted By: Max Kalika (mkalika) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: var_prefix directory mounted with noatime breaks Mailman.

Initial Comment: On a test machine: ike mailman # mount /dev/root on / type reiserfs (rw,noatime,notail) ike mailman # su - mailman -c "bin/newlist list user@domain pass" Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/newlist", line 219, in ? main() File "bin/newlist", line 180, in main mlist.Unlock() File "/home/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 165, in Unlock self.__lock.unlock(unconditionally=1) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", line 321, in unlock islocked = self.locked() File "/home/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", line 345, in locked self.__touch() File "/home/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", line 442, in __touch os.utime(filename or self.__tmpfname, (t, t)) TypeError: utime() arg 2 must be a tuple (atime, mtime) now, if you change the filesystem options... ike mailman # mount /dev/root on / type reiserfs (rw,notail) ike mailman # su - mailman -c "bin/newlist list user@domain pass" To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your /etc/aliases (or equivalent) file by adding the following lines, and possibly running the `newaliases' program: ## list mailing list list: "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman post list" list-admin: "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman admin list" list-bounces: "|/home/mailman/mail/mailman bounces list" .... The attached patch seems to fix the situation. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Message: Logged In: YES user_id=805201 bah! please ignore this bug. the errors were caused due to glibc/python/mailman being compiled with -march=pentium4 which breaks some floating point calculations. sorry for the inconvenience, everything is fine now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Max Kalika (mkalika) Date: 2003-06-26 14:24 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=805201 I found another place where this is happening. I reposted the patch. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300103&aid=761421&group_id=103
