I tried to tell you a couple of days ago
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2007-December/059421.html>
that you should start new topics by composing a new message to
mailman-users at python.org, not by replying to an unrelated post. I
suggest you go to
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2007-December/> and
look for your posts if you don't understand what I'm saying.

As far as the above error is concerned, and the related 'service httpd'
error in your other post is concerned, these are not things that this
list can help you with. These errors occur in the running of shell
scripts installed with the respective rpm packages. These are scripts
in /etc/init.d (or /etc/rc.d/init.d) named mailman, httpd, etc.

The problem above seems to occur before the script even tries to issue
a mailmanctl command.

If you can't figure out what the problem with this is, you can always
run "~mailman/bin/mailmanctl restart" directly.
