Hello,
I have now a running mailman and a running inn news server - only for mailing lists access (news.culte.org)
I try to setup the gateway.
in mailman, I wrote localhost as news server (the two apps are on the same machine) and "test" as test list.
test list works test newsgroup works
when I send a post to the test list, I see it in the news group
but when I post in the newsgroup, I don't see it in the list! "gateway to mail" is ticked in the two lines in the administrative interface
fromusenet log:
s-r:~ # tail /var/lib/mailman/logs/fromusenet May 05 18:10:02 2014 (12680) test watermark: 31 May 05 18:10:02 2014 (12682) test: [1..0] May 05 18:10:02 2014 (12682) nothing new for list test May 05 18:10:02 2014 (12682) test watermark: 31
(there is nothing in the inn logs)
the cron job is active
,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/bin/python /usr/lib/mailman/cron/gate_news
any idea? It should be something obvious I miss :-(
thanks jdd

The test list's high watermark for the newsgroup is 31. This means no posts prior to #32 in the newsgroup will be gated to the list.
Use bin/withlist and do the following
$ bin/withlist -l test Loading list test (locked) The variable `m' is the test MailList instance
m.usenet_watermark = None m.Save() <- Cntrl-D to exit Unlocking (but not saving) list: test Finalizing $

well...I'm cursed :-(
this worked with the test list, but not with the main list!
same symptoms: list is "linux-31"
linux-31 newsgroup works linux-31 mailman list works
post to the list go to the newsgroup
but posts to the newsgroup do not reach the list

do not fix the problem

There is no problem with gate_news. gate_news says it delivered all 12 messages from the news group to the list.
What's in Mailman's other logs? Were these posts to news that didn't come from the list in the first place?

I post on news group and expect posts to show on list. works for test, not for linux-31

Actually, I was mistaken. The log messages you posted say only that it delivered message #12.
Have you looked at Mailman's vette, error and qrunner logs for clues as to what may have happened to it?
Note that the log message
May 06 08:43:47 2014 (27035) posted to list linux-31: 12
was written immediately after that message was queued by gate_news in Mailman's incoming queue, so it was "delivered" to the list.

I don't understand what happened really, because the messages where *archived* but not délivered to the list!!
as the newsgroup was nearly empty, I could use m.usenet_watermark = 0 and this seems to have solved the problem
some notes about it here:
