cp cron/senddigests cron/senddigestsx Then edit cron/senddigestsx Where you see (without the linewrap) for listname in listnames: mlist = MailList.MailList(listname, lock=0) if mlist.digest_send_periodic: mlist.Lock() try: try: mlist.send_digest_now() mlist.Save() # We are unable to predict what exception may occur in digest # processing and we don't want to lose the other digests, so # we catch everything. except Exception, errmsg: print >> sys.stderr, \ 'List: %s: problem processing %s:\n%s' % \ (listname, os.path.join(mlist.fullpath(), 'digest.mbox'), errmsg) finally: mlist.Unlock() Add the two lines import traceback traceback.print_exc() to make it for listname in listnames: mlist = MailList.MailList(listname, lock=0) if mlist.digest_send_periodic: mlist.Lock() try: try: mlist.send_digest_now() mlist.Save() # We are unable to predict what exception may occur in digest # processing and we don't want to lose the other digests, so # we catch everything. except Exception, errmsg: print >> sys.stderr, \ 'List: %s: problem processing %s:\n%s' % \ (listname, os.path.join(mlist.fullpath(), 'digest.mbox'), errmsg) import traceback traceback.print_exc() finally: mlist.Unlock() make sure the added lines are indented exactly the same amount (20 spaces) as the 'print' above and don't use tabs. Then run cron/senddigestsx -l dcaplusplus This should produce a traceback in addition to the above message.
