2.0beta2: missing messages in the archives
by Mentor Cana May 19, 2000

May 19, 2000

Hello, I do recall that 2.0beta2 had an issue with not putting the "From " line when archiving the message.... This seems to be fixed in current CVS. However, the current CVS has other problems with approval and sending to -admin and -request addresses. Can someone let me know which revised file from the current CVS I need to fix this problem? thanks, Mentor

Archive problem with MM 1.1
by Bas Rijniersce May 19, 2000

May 19, 2000

Hello, During a cleanup I removed the Archive directorie without switching off the archive option for a list (I think that's the cause of my problem, but i could be wrong). Since then the subscribers to one list always get the following messages when they send one to the list: .... Subj: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender In body: > Child process of list_transport transport returned 1 from command: > /usr/local/mailman/mail/wrapper .... This problem started suddenly. In logs/error ....

I can't find what symlink is missing. I tried to switch of the archive option using the web interface afterwards but that generates the same error. Any suggestions are welcome (and i'll be moving to 2.0 soon :) Bas ---- Bas Rijniersce Phone +31 341 550545 Oude Telgterweg 81 Fax +31 341 562940 3851 EA Ermelo http://www.brijn.nu The Netherlands bas(a)brijn.nu

can't change any setting on the /admin web page
by <framling> Barton Andras May 19, 2000

May 19, 2000

Hello! I can not change any setting on my list through the web based control box. After modifying eg: the header of the list (non digest members) mailman redirect me to the page where the password has to be entered, and does not make the change. Any suggestions? The other lists running on this server are working well.

RE: [Mailman-Users] ./configure error (gcc doesn't work)
by Gregory Leblanc May 19, 2000

May 19, 2000

99% chance that you don't have 'glibc-devel' installed on your system. Check that with 'rpm -q glibc-devel', and if it's not there install it from the CD or redhat's FTP site. Greg [snip]

./configure error (gcc doesn't work)
by Will Dennis May 19, 2000

May 19, 2000

Hello all, Not really a Mailman issue, but there may be someone on this list who can help. When I run ./configure (mailman-2.0beta2), I get the following error: checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables. As I'm not a C programmer (or any programmer, really), I don't know how to fix this problem. What exactly is ./configure doing when it checks whether gcc works? System is running RedHat 6.1, egcs-1.1.2-24 installed (& .rpm verifies clean.) Thanks for any help provided, and sorry for off-topic posting. Will Dennis willd(a)p-wave.com
