[Mailman-Users] Help: MM 2.1.5 not working after failed update from 2.1.2

[Frank Thommen]

Hello list members,

as written in a previous posting, the upgrade from 2.1.2 to 2.1.5 failed.  When
I nevertheless start MM 2.1.5, I get around 20 of the following errors:

---
# mailmanctl start
Starting Mailman's master qrunner.
# Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/bin/qrunner", line 270, in ?
    main()
  File "/usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/bin/qrunner", line 230, in main
    qrunner.run()
  File "/usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 70, in run
    filecnt = self._oneloop()
  File "/usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 99, in
_oneloop
    msg, msgdata = self._switchboard.dequeue(filebase)
  File "/usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/Mailman/Queue/Switchboard.py", line 147, in
dequeue
    data = cPickle.load(fp)
EOFError

Mailman does not seem to deliver any mails after that.


When I then stop 2.1.5 and start 2.1.2, I get around a dozen of these errors:

---
Jun 26 21:43:27 2004 (1204) lost data files for filebase:
1088195523.0786779+4c5e6189f5cc4ba967f1556ffb911c03c84d6174
---

and I have the impression, that some maillists do not deliver, whereas other
deliver well.


Can anybody give hints how to debug or even correct this problem or the one
described in 'Updating MM 2.1.2 -> 2.1.5 "stucks"'
(http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/msg25414.html)?


Thanks a lot in advance

   frank
