[Mailman-Developers] FreeBSD 8.2, Python2.7, Exim-4 and MM3

[Odhiambo Washington]

Hello everyone,

This is my first post to this list so please bear with me.

I am not a developer and as such I request you again to bear with me. My
only endeavor is be able to get MM3 running on FreeBSD with Python2.7 and
Exim 4 as the MTA.

So far I have hit a deadlock, hence my coming to you.

I have Python2.7 and py-sqlite3 installed from the ports. These are the
latest versions on the FreeBSD ports tree.

I have downloaded and installed MM-3.0 (mailman-3.0.0a7) and closely
followed the instructions.

So far, I've gotten stuck on one of the tests - `bin/mailman info`.

Let me start with the output of bin/test -vv (I've truncated it to just the
top and the bottom bits):

<bottom bits>
Ran 134 tests with 0 failures and 0 errors in 0.728 seconds.
Tearing down left over layers:
  Tear down zope.testrunner.layer.UnitTests in 0.000 seconds.

Tests with errors:
   Layer: mailman.testing.layers.ConfigLayer
   Layer: mailman.testing.layers.SMTPLayer
   Layer: mailman.testing.layers.RESTLayer
Total: 134 tests, 0 failures, 3 errors in 1.142 seconds.
</bottom bits>

So I can see the failures but have no clue of how to fix them.

Now, when I invoke `bin/mailman info`, this is what I get:

mail# bin/mailman info
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bin/mailman", line 20, in <module>
    mailman.bin.mailman.main()

    self._create(debug)

in _create
    database = create_database(url)
  File

line 460, in create_database
    return factory(uri)
  File

line 177, in __init__
    raise DatabaseModuleError("'pysqlite2' module not found")
storm.exceptions.DatabaseModuleError: 'pysqlite2' module not found

There is no py-sqlite2 port on FreeBSD 8.2 at the moment. Is there something
I can do to get past this deadlock?

The second part of my problem is how to integrate MM3 with Exim4. I am
informed that things have greatly changed from the way Exim4 was configured
with MM2 (2.1.x). I am hoping that there are Exim gurus here, who have
already worked on a configuration for MM3+Exim and have documented the bits
required for both exim.conf and mailman.cf.

Thanks.
