debian sarge install help - "Mailman CGI error!!!"
by Jed Davidow Feb. 4, 2005

Feb. 4, 2005

I am a relative newbie to linux and debian. I installed mailman via apt-get, and have since run "dpkg -reconfigure mailman" a couple times. I also ran the check_perms script. I am running with postfix and apache2. Also running python 2.3 and I installed python2.3-dev. When I hit one of the mailman cgi pages, I get a scambled page back, about halfway down is the following: Mailman CGI error!!! --with-cgi-gidwebCGI--with-mail-gidmailPYTHONPATH=PYTHONHOME= -S%sThe Mailman CGI … [View More]

Mailman CGI error!!!
by jpsota＠gmail.com Feb. 4, 2005

Feb. 4, 2005

Hi All, I'm getting the following error after I configured mailman as per instructions. Can someone please shed light on this? I can give you system details -- please just ask. Many thanks, jim Mailman CGI error!!! The Mailman CGI wrapper encountered a fatal error. This entry is being stored in your syslog: Failure to lookup via getgrgid() the group info for group id -1 that this Mailman CGI wrapper is executing under. This is probably due to an incorrectly configured system and is not a Mailman problem

Setting Up a List Via Command Line?
by Hunter Hillegas Feb. 4, 2005

Feb. 4, 2005

I have a need to do some list setup from the command line via another program. I am running 2.1.5. I am able to create the list and add members. One thing I would like to do is to set the moderation bit to true for all members and then set it to false for a single member. I am creating an announce list programatically. I am able to import the members no problem. How can I perform the moderation settings changes? Thanks, Hunter

Mailman on UML?
by Todd Slater Feb. 4, 2005

Feb. 4, 2005

I'd be interested in knowing if anybody is successfully using Mailman under User Mode Linux and what sort of specs this requires. I am trying it with 64MB RAM and have memory errors, but I'm also running Apache and Dovecot for IMAP mail. httpd and python seem to use the most memory. That's running on Fedora Core 2. FAQ 1.24: In theory, Mailman should work on any hardware/operating system that fully supports the current version of Python (e.g., 2.3), and includes compatible web and mail servers.… [View More]

when a list is created for me to administer, is it possible to create sublists to further differentiate my large list into smaller ones that will allow for me to send certain things to certain groups...or do I need to have separate lists created? thank you

Mailman list providers
by david＠johmar.com Feb. 4, 2005

Feb. 4, 2005

Can anyone recommend a professional mailing list provider to us? If they use mailman that is great as out current list is with an old version of that. We send out about 10 text messages a day to 400 odd subscribers. We would be grateful for the option to pay and receive a professional service rather than rely on occasional goodwill.

Mailman/VERP problems.
by Aaron Crosman Feb. 3, 2005

Feb. 3, 2005

After several months of a nicely functioning Mailman server, I opted to enable VERP yesterday. We're running MM 2.1.4 on SuSE with exim. Since then most everything has worked fine, until an announcement only list of 4000 sent a message earlier this afternoon. Of the roughly 4000 messages, about 1600 are now frozen in the exim queue. The exim queue has lots of entries like this: 2005-02-03 12:27:31 1CwklP-0002Rm-5i <= listname-bounces+namepart=domain.tld(a)server.org H=localhost (server.… [View More]
