Hello, MM users---
After upgrading from mailman 2.0.9 to mailman-2.1.2, and tweaking all the things I could find to tweak, I still get this error emailed to me at the rate of about three a minute:
Your "cron" job on urserver.uchicago.edu /usr/local/bin/python -S /usr/local/mailman/cron/qrunner produced the following output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/mailman/cron/qrunner", line 89, in ?
from Mailman.Handlers import HandlerAPI
File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/HandlerAPI.py", line 26, in ?
from Mailman.pythonlib.StringIO import StringIO
ImportError: No module named pythonlib.StringIO
Well some of your old MM installation is executing to generate these warnings. The traceback is from MM 2.0.x code as the Mailman/Handlers/HandlerAPI.py file is not in the MM 2.1.2 distribution; well its in MM 2.0.13 but not in MM 2.1.2 on my test system.
With Mailman 2.1.2 the qrunner is no longer run as a cron job.
The 2.1.2 qrunners are run as daemons started by the $prefix/bin/mailmanctl script.
Looks like, maybe, you did not remove the mailman user's crontab before doing the update and the old 2.0.9 crontab is still trying to do stuff.
Did you take a look at the section 'UPGRADING FROM 2.0.x to 2.1' in the UPGRADING file in your MM 2.1.2 build director as part of your tweakingy?
Richard et. al.--
Well, yeah, I did read that thing. I did not remove (in Solaris 7) /var/spool/cron/cronjobs/mailman prior to the install.
So, I've rm'd that cronjob. We'd been running that cron from root anyway, so I commented all out from there as well. I did a configure, make install all over again. I still am getting the same error message by email. Any suggestions? The original install of MM made me feel pretty smart. This one makes me feel dumb.
If messages reporting the same error are still turning up then either the mail system has a backlog it is drip feeding you or there is still another crontab which executes the old MM qrunner script in place and enough old MM code extant to generate the error.
