Hi all
This must be triavial. Our mailman installation worked too
good, too long. So we forgot its details. Now we are
mirgrating to a new (virtual) server and I'm faced this
problem.
Old box: slackware 12.0, mailman installed from sources
New box: Ubuntu Server 2009.4, mailman got with apt-get,
the standard exim was replaced by postfix, also through
apt.
This is roughly what I did:
- copied old:/usr/local/mailman/{lists|archives|data} to
new:/var/lib/mailman/
- chown -R list /var/lib/mailman/{lists|archives|data}
- /etc/init.d/mailman start
and I get "IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:
'/var/lib/mailman/lists/mailman/config.pck"
checking the privileges
-rw-rw---- 1 root klog 3660 2009-07-27 17:18 config.pck
its odd pending.pck and request.pck are owned by list:klog
and have timestamps 2008-10-21. Deleting config.pck didn't
help, it was recreated with the identical permissions.
What is missing?
Second question: How do I create all the special strings
needed by postfix?
best regards
