This will typically happen when you run "mailmanctl" command as a non-mailman user.
Make sure that the /etc/rc.d/mailman script runs the "maimanctl stop/start/restart" command as "su -c mailmanctl mailman start/stop/restart" Or add a script to /etc/rc.d/rc.local which runs mailmanctl start command as a user "mailman". (i.e. use su -mailman as described above) --yogesh > At 11:16 AM -0500 2004-06-29, Michael Sullivan wrote: > >> I issued the "service mailman restart" command to which it gave the the >> output: >> >> [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mailman]# service mailman restart >> PID unreadable in: /var/mailman/data/master-qrunner.pid >> [Errno 2] No such file or directory: >> '/var/mailman/data/master-qrunner.pid' >> Is qrunner even running? > > This should just be a warning.
