[Mailman-Users] Cron jobs stopped

[Gergely Soros]

Mailman 2.0 has been working wonderfully on our Raq (Redhat 6.2, Python 1.5)
until today. I don't have a clue of what's going on, any help is appreciated.

The qrunner cron job doesn't execute, instead it sends me the message:
/usr/bin/python: can't open file '/home/mailman/cron/qrunner'

Same happens with:
/usr/bin/python: can't open file '/home/mailman/cron/gate_news'

Hope the following will help:

Regards
