Category: configure/install Group: Mailman 2.1 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Kev Green (kyrian) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: MySQL MemberAdaptor for Mailman 2.1 Initial Comment: A MemberAdaptor "plugin" which should allow Mailman list members to be loaded from a MySQL database, rather than just a Mailman "pickle" file. Provided as-is, and without warranty, this "plugin" may destroy your server, soul, scalp, house, and life. Please use it with caution.

Message: Logged In: YES user_id=99923 Folks, For my own sanity I have decided to create a dedicated area of my business website for various opensource projects, and put this project among others under there, so please refer to this location for updates to this patch in future: http://www.orenet.co.uk/opensource/ I will still be reading bug reports via sourceforge, but if nothing else, their user interface is much more fiddly and time consuming to publish files than a quick tar -czvf and an scp, so I'll be using my own environment to host the files at least for the time being. The latest version at this time is 1.61, I belive it still requires substantial testing which I'll get around to one of these days.

Main notes: * It would be a good idea to change all your delivery_status fields from VARCHAR(255) to INT(10) or similar, so that they will work properly, and not bomb out on this new version (they should be okay I think, but I'd advise the change). * The missing-'AND' typo has been rectified. Any suggestions and bugs should be sent to my sourceforge account address, which ends up in the right place.

FYI: there's a missing "AND" in MysqlMemberships.py in line 494. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: simboforge (simboforge) Date: 2005-03-11 23:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1226150 excellent. can you please give me a list of the files modified from the original distro? grep sees six that grep have msyql in them. thx ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kev Green (kyrian) Date: 2005-03-11 22:56 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=99923 The flat file databases are unused when you put the MySQL adaptor in place, and they are untouched (and indeed not deleted) by it, the MySQL adaptor only queries the MySQL tables for membership information, without trying to force you into using it fulltime by deleting anything, etc. Once you unconfigure the MySQL adaptor, Mailman should revert back to your existing flat file databases. Of course, I could have missed something, etc. so do back up your flat file databases before installing the MySQL adaptor, and then you can just migrate back to them by restoring the backups. Either way, you have come up with a good question for an FAQ on the SQL adaptor :-) K. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: simboforge (simboforge) Date: 2005-03-11 22:42 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1226150 neat. just what i was looking for. i have a couple of live lists running on version version 2.1.5. i am a bit leary about unzipping this distrobution over the top of my working mailman as i am not sure how to backup the existing flat file databases. i would prefer to experiment with dropping the adapter into my existing installation. any pointers as to where to start? thx ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kev Green (kyrian) Date: 2004-12-13 18:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=99923 Oh, btw. v1.57 hasn't been tested yet, so it might kill your server, eat your dog, and stick your wife in the oven. Be careful using it! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kev Green (kyrian) Date: 2004-12-13 18:33 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=99923 Version 1.57: 2004/12/13 * Merge in Daniel Shriver patch/code for a flat table architecture. [ Suggested by Kevin McCann <kmccann(at)bellanet.org>, but I hadn't found time to do it myself... ] * Add bugfix information from Jinhyok Heo <novembre@NOSPAM.ournature.org> * Add in mksqlmailman script from TheSin <thesin@SPAMNOTHANKS.southofheaven.org> * Follow Barry Warsaw's suggestion on delivery status timestamp. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kev Green (kyrian) Date: 2004-01-08 11:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=99923 Latest version incorporates automated generation of the necessary tables, cleaner error reporting, and updated documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kev Green (kyrian) Date: 2003-11-11 11:14 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=99923 Bit of an oops in version 1.49, 1.50 now uploaded, which should fix it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300103&aid=839386&group_id=103
