I recently installed mailman 2.1.9-2 via RPM on Fedora Core 6. Everything seems to be working fine except every 5 minutes I receive the following error via my mailman list:
"Illegal command: /usr/lib/mailman/cron/gate_news" root is sending it. /usr/lib/mailman/cron/gate_news/ has the same permissions as the other cron jobs in //usr/lib/mailman/cron/ I edited /usr/lib/mailman/cron/crontab.in/, commenting out what I thought the offending line was: "0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * mailman /usr/lib/mailman/cron/gate_news" to "# 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * mailman /usr/lib/mailman/cron/gate_news" After editing the file, I restart mailman as root, so the cron permissions are all correct. But I still receive the error. Any help would be much appreciated, the same E-mail every 5 minutes is getting awfully annoying. -- Censorship is telling a man he can't have a steak just because a baby can't chew it. - Mark Twain ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
