Well, that was reassuring, so I ran "ps aux | grep mail" to dig out the syntax for mailmanctl, and stopped it with
/usr/bin/python2 /home/mailman/bin/mailmanctl -s -q stop I went to /usr/scr/mailman.2.1.2 and ran the exact same commands I used last October to install 2.1b3. (Yes, I keep these things around, I hate haveing to figure them out every few months.) ./configure --with-mail-gid=99 --with-cgi-gid=99 --prefix=/home/mailman --with-python=/usr/bin/python2 make install When I restarted mailmanctl I get [EMAIL PROTECTED] templates]$ /usr/bin/python2 /home/mailman/bin/mailmanctl -s -q start Site list is missing: mailman The web interface appears to be running fine, but ps reports no mailman processes, and messages are not being processed. I realized that I was running as root when I did the install, so I did "chown -R mailman:mailman *" from /home/mailman, and got the same result. I then reconfigured and reinstalled. I had a couple of permission problems in foreign language template directories, didn't see any other errors, but I still come up with the same error on startup. Mailman is totally down, so if anybody has a hint I'm standing by! Van "Barry A.
