Hello,
I just installed Mailman 1.1 from the freebsd ports collection on a machine running FreeBSD 4.0. It is running python 1.5.2 and the permissions, according to check_perms, are OK.
I started out by creating a test list, and this is the web page I received at <http://myhost/mailman/admin/testlist>:
" Bug in Mailman version <undetermined>
We're sorry, we hit a bug! If you would like to help us identify the problem, please email a copy of this page to the webmaster for this site with a description of what happened. Thanks!
Traceback:
[failed to import module traceback] [exc: ImportError, var: No module named os]
[failed to import module os] "
Any insight into my Mailman problems would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Travis Ruthenburg

Looks pretty broken all right. Are you certain you installed it correctly (with make install)? Check for the presence of paths.py in all the subdirectories of ~mailman, and check that they appear to have the same, correct contents. Try "cd ~mailman; python -i bin/withlist testlist" and see what happens.

I'm fairly certain I installed it correctly. To double check, I removed the port and installed from source following the INSTALL directions. Same problem.
www15:/usr/local/mailman> cd ~mailman; python -i bin/withlist testlist Loading list: testlist (unlocked)
Any ideas would be very helpful.
Regards,
Travis
