I've got some fairly high-traffic mailing lists (sunmanagers, with ~3K members, sunhelp with ~1K, and 3 or 4 others with ~500 members).
Upgraded to Python 2.0 this morning, and recompiled/reinstalled mailman 2.0.3 along with it (had already been running this version, but I figure recompiling/installing it along with the new python wouldnt hurt). I started getting a lot *more* of these in /usr/local/mailman/logs/qrunner than normal:
Mar 23 10:47:06 2001 (29208) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 10:48:03 2001 (29234) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 10:49:01 2001 (29246) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 10:50:04 2001 (29272) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 10:51:02 2001 (29300) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 10:52:02 2001 (29313) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 10:53:03 2001 (29325) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 10:54:02 2001 (29336) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 10:55:03 2001 (29381) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 11:01:03 2001 (29527) Could not acquire qrunner lock
At this point, I looked at the crontab, and changed the qrunner line to this (I figured it was trying too often):
# Retry failed deliveries once per minute. 1,15,30,45 * * * * /usr/local/bin/python -S /usr/local/mailman/cron/qrunner
Now, I'm seeing this in qrunner:
Mar 23 11:15:03 2001 (29811) Exception reading qfile: /usr/local/mailman/qfiles/ 32cc45c1b567ea4a21478ea362d26fe7cfae5560 [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/mailman/qfiles/32cc45c1b567ea4a 21478ea362d26fe7cfae5560.db' Mar 23 11:30:04 2001 (199) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 11:45:02 2001 (426) Exception reading qfile: /usr/local/mailman/qfiles/32 cc45c1b567ea4a21478ea362d26fe7cfae5560 [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/mailman/qfiles/32cc45c1b567ea4a 21478ea362d26fe7cfae5560.db' Mar 23 12:01:04 2001 (784) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 12:15:02 2001 (1043) Exception reading qfile: /usr/local/mailman/qfiles/3 2cc45c1b567ea4a21478ea362d26fe7cfae5560 [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/mailman/qfiles/32cc45c1b567ea4a 21478ea362d26fe7cfae5560.db' Mar 23 12:30:04 2001 (1422) Could not acquire qrunner lock Mar 23 12:45:02 2001 (1644) Exception reading qfile: /usr/local/mailman/qfiles/3 2cc45c1b567ea4a21478ea362d26fe7cfae5560 [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/mailman/qfiles/32cc45c1b567ea4a 21478ea362d26fe7cfae5560.db'
Mail is getting through, although sometimes mail I sent to a small list (< 100 members) might take 5-6 hours to arrive - and this is to my account on the *local machine*. Any suggestions? Seems I've been seeing these delays since upgrading > 2.0.1.
MTA is Sendmail 8.11.x, local delivery agent for local mail is procmail. OS is Solaris 8, on a 300Mhz SPARC AXe-based machine with 128MB of RAM, and plenty of drive space.
Thanks.

Sounds like you've got some permissions set wrong, Bill. Having qrunner run once a minute works pretty well, btw. It keeps the queue small and the overhead is minimal.
