import is not include
You can't just put an add_virtualhost('a','b') line in a file and
import it into mm_cfg.py, because 'add_virtualhost' is undefined in
the file you're importing.
You don't get an error log entry because the traceback logging in
scripts/driver does this
try:
from Mailman.mm_cfg import VERSION
except ImportError:
VERSION = '<undetermined>'
but when you have syntax or other errors occurring in the import, the
exception thrown is not ImportError and the whole thing dies right
there. You might find the error in the web server's error log.
To actually see what the problem is, do
cd /var/lib/mailman/Mailman
python
>>> import mm_cfg
And you'll see the errors. This won't necessarily tell you what to do,
but it will tell you what you can't do.
