Hi,
I am trying to perform the check installation step in the Mailman Installation Guide. I am receiving an error when I run the check_perms script from within my installation folder.
[root@157226-mail mailman-2.1.10]# bin/check_perms -bash: bin/check_perms: @PYTHON@: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
I installed Python 2.4.4 and it seems to be in the path as I can execute this version correctly. The Mailman installation also seems to have run fine and I followed all the instructions prior to this step.
I can't seem to find the line in the check_perms script that is failing either as the shell does not report a line number.
Please offer some advice for areas to troubleshoot as I am not all that familiar with Mailman and am not a linux guru either.
Thanks in advance!
Bill

You are trying to run an unconfigured check_perms. I am guessing mailman-2.1.10 is the directory in which you unpacked the tarball and ran configure and make.
You need to run 'make install' if you haven't already, and run bin/check_perms from the 'prefix' directory (/usr/local/mailman by default).

Thanks for the clarification, Mark. This worked!
