[Mailman-Users] problems up through 2.1b1

[Justin Sheehy]

I was having some problems with one of the cgis under 2.1a2, but that
sort of thing is to be expected with an alpha release.  I figured that
I'd upgrade to 2.1b1 to see if it helped.  Well, it changed the problem.

All mail to any mailman/wrapper managed addresses now bounce like so:

-----------------------------------------------------
<loopback at iago.org>: Command died with status 1: 
"/home/mailman/mail/wrapper  
    post loopback"  
Reporting-MTA: dns; ra.iago.org

Final-Recipient: rfc822; loopback at iago.org

Status: 5.0.0  
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; Command died with status 1:  
    "/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post loopback"  
-----------------------------------------------------

Some of the web page CGI scripts throw tracebacks.  For instance, the
admin membership management page:

-----------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/mailman/scripts/driver", line 82, in run_main

(sorry for the formatting, it didn't survive cut/paste very well)

Did I miss some documentation necessary for the upgrade?  Mailman is
useless on this host at this time.

Thanks for any help.  Please let me know if there is any more info
that I can provide.
