Running 2.1.9 on Debian etch (stable), lists working fine except qrunner silently dies and noone notices until someone realizes they haven't seen any mail lately. Currently worked around with cron job restarting Mailman. Googling around, some have suggested this might be related to permissions...?
Whether my perms are related to the above problem or not, I apparently do have some permissions problems as shown by running check_perms. There were initially 70-some problems, most if not all of which were related to group being root instead of list. I ran check_perms -f (as root) and many, but not all, were fixed. Now there are 17 that still show having the same problem - group root not list - and I can't seem to fix it. Even using WinSCP and trying to change the group ownership with that instead of check_perms -f does not give lasting results. IOW, I can't seem to change the permissions! I'm not a Linux expert, obvious from the above... Any suggestions? Would CHMOD from a server terminal be any different? Any other comments? I've checked the FAQ, but I don't see the problem there (or don't recognize it). Thanks! Running Mailman since 2.1.5 with essentially no problems until I upgraded Debian from sarge to etch and Mailman from 2.1.5 to 2.1.9.
