Being the big newbie, I am having 2 snags so far in my Mailman 1.0b4 installation (Red Hat 5.1):

1. Cron is giving me this every 5 minutes:

Date: Wed, 3 Jun 1998 19:20:01 -0400 From: Cron Daemon <root@chimera.acm.jhu.edu> To: mailman@chimera.acm.jhu.edu Subject: Cron <mailman@chimera> /usr/bin/python /home/mailman/cron/gate_news

Traceback (innermost last): File "/home/mailman/cron/gate_news", line 41, in ? file = open(os.path.join(mm_cfg.DATA_DIR, "gate_watermarks.last"), "w") IOError: (13, 'Permission denied')

2. And I'm getting a 403 Forbidden on the test list...I'm thinking this might be related to the other admin installing cgi-wrap...I'm not too keen on how it works.

Does is the user mailman supposed to belong to just the users group, or users as well as the mailman group?

Note: since I sent this message originally, I changed to add the mailman user account to be a member of the mailman group, which seems to have cleared up whatever problem was at the root of #1. However, I don't know what the story is with #2....I keep getting:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /mailman/admin/test on this server.

The list itself is going ok; I received the initial email to the admin and all when I first started the test list.
