I installed mailman on a new machine running redhat 8. That machine is also
running the latest 1.X apache and sendmail packages. Everything installed
fine. I copied over some other lists that were running on and older machine
and they show up fine on the admin page. I can configure them and
everything. All aliases are set up in /etc/aliases. However when I tried to
send a test message, it seems to go through fine, I get no emails saying the
the mail server rejected it or anything. What I do get is a constant and
steady stream of emails from the cron daemon all saying the exact same
thing:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/mailman/cron/gate_news", line 222, in ?
main()
File "/home/mailman/cron/gate_news", line 203, in main
process_lists(lock)
File "/home/mailman/cron/gate_news", line 148, in process_lists
conn, first, last = open_newsgroup(mlist)
File "/home/mailman/cron/gate_news", line 75, in open_newsgroup
password=mm_cfg.NNTP_PASSWORD)
File "/home/mailman/Mailman/pythonlib/nntplib.py", line 111, in __init__
self.sock.connect((self.host, self.port))
socket.error: (111, 'Connection refused')
I have no idea what this means. I'm pretty green when it comes to linux so
keep that in mind.
I do know what the cron daemon is and I did set up the mailman cron entry as
instructed in there install directions.
