Re: [Mailman-Users] Cron Dameon msgs re: qrunner

Uhhh, you should remove that cron entry. Mailman version 2.1 does not use a cron activated qrunner instead it runs a daemon called Mailmanctl.

In the upgrade instructions it tells you to remove the old cron entries before putting in the new cron entries. BTW, why are you running the mailman crons as root (as opposed to the more secure user "mailman")?

Feel free to read the files README, INSTALL, and UPGRADE (in the main source directory), they will be of considerable help to you.

After upgrading to MM 2.1, I am getting the following e-mail msg from Con Daemon, one per minute:

Subject: Cron root@leo /usr/local/bin/python2.2 -S /usr/local/mailman/cron/qrunner X-Cron-Env: X-Cron-Env: X-Cron-Env: X-Cron-Env: X-Cron-Env:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/mailman/cron/qrunner", line 89, in ? from Mailman.Handlers import HandlerAPI File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/HandlerAPI.py", line 26, in ? from Mailman.pythonlib.StringIO import StringIO ImportError: No module named pythonlib.StringIO

I looked at the qrunner file, and found that it was not dated the same as all others in the mailman/cron directory, so I copied the new qrunner from the work directory in the port. Then I started getting the following e-mail each minute:

Run one or more qrunners, once or repeatedly.

Each named runner class is run in round-robin fashion. In other words, the first named runner is run to consume all the files currently in its directory. When that qrunner is done, the next one is run to consume all the files in /its/ directory, and so on. The number of total iterations can be given on the command line.

Usage: /usr/local/mailman/cron/qrunner [options]

[etc. Snipped for space ...]

So, I copied the old qrunner back into place. First message above returned each minute, but the mail is delivered.

Anyone have a clue as to what's going on?
