hi, As the erros says you should have configured the mailman '--with-mail-gid=nogroup' option.
So go to your extracted tar-ball directory, so "su - mailman" and as a user "mailman" say: $ ./configure --prefix=/var/lib/mailman --with-var-prefix=/var/mailman --with-cgi-gid=nogroup --with-mail-gid=nogroup $ make $ make install This should work. May be you installed mailman when logged in as root! --yogesh ------------------ > On Fri, 16 Apr 2004 07:01:09 +0530 (IST) > Yogesh Subhash Talekar wrote: > >> okie .. i think you should: >> >> Add the line /var/lib/mailman/data/aliases to alias_maps and *remove* >> it from virtual_alias_maps. >> >> Just make sure that you run: >> /usr/bin/postmap on var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman >> And >> /usr/sbin/postaliases on /var/lib/mailman/data/aliases >> >> The problem is the user "test-subscribe" should be resolvable locally > > Lo Yogesh, > > Thanks for writing.
