It looks like you have a crontab in the wrong place. Normal, per user, crontab entries are: minute hour day_of_month month day_of_week command Crontab entries in /etc/cron.d have an additional username field to specify the user under which to run the command minute hour day_of_month month day_of_week username command If you have a crontab with entries like 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * mailman /usr/bin/python -S /cygdrive/f/test-mailman/cron/gate_news and you install this with the crontab command, cron will attempt to execute the command mailman /usr/bin/python -S /cygdrive/f/test-mailman/cron/gate_news instead of executing /usr/bin/python -S /cygdrive/f/test-mailman/cron/gate_news as user mailman. >I think is because I haven't any gate news so: >I've comment this line in: > >/usr/lib/mailman/cron/crontab.in > ># Every 5 mins, try to gate news to mail. =A0You can comment this one out ># if you don't want to allow gating, or don't have any going on right now, ># or want to exclusively use a callback strategy instead of polling. ># 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * = > > >I've restart mailman daemon and check that = > >/etc/cron.d/mailman = > >is succesfull edited after Do you perhaps have two crontabs running in parallel? One in /etc/cron.d/mailman and one installed by crontab in (perhaps) /var/spool/cron/mailman. You definitely want one or the other, but not both. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
