Hello there,
I just joind in... and my first problem is that the cron jobs seem to all fail...; I disabled the most frequent of them, and unuseful for me... the one I kept is :
# Every 1/2 hour flush the outgoing mail queue. 12,42 * * * * /usr/local/bin/python /export/home/mailman/cron/run_queue
If I run it as user mailman, it says : $ /usr/local/bin/python /export/home/mailman/cron/run_queue Traceback (innermost last): File "/export/home/mailman/cron/run_queue", line 46, in ? main() File "/export/home/mailman/cron/run_queue", line 39, in main lockfile.lock() File "/export/home/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", line 186, in lock os.link(self.__lockfile, self.__tmpfname) OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory $ id uid=107(mailman) gid=1(other)
To solve this, I did what might be stupid, by accident actually :) chown -R mailman:mailman ~mailman
instead of ~mailman/cron
now, my initial problem seems to have gone away, since i can run all those jobs without them complaining... my question is, did I screw up anything by that recursive chown on all of mailman dir, and that's the directory where I actually installed mailman !!
Thanx alot.
