And here's the problem.
sudo chmod g+w
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/my_list_name.mbox/my_list_name.mbox
will fix it. Then you can run bin/unshunt which will put the shunted
messages in the archive, but as I said before, it's a good idea to first
examine the contents of qfiles/shunt/ to be sure there aren't other
messages there that you don't want requeued.
Got it! Thanks.
The messages have entered the archive now and I'll keep a watch when new
ones arrive to see if they're archived or bounced.
So in summary, this is what I did:
1. permission fixing for the archive
------------------------------------
$ sudo chmod g+w
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/my_list_name.mbox/my_list_name.mbox
So this adds write permission to the group ("hal" and "mailman"), right?
Here's a listing before issuing the above chmod command:
$ pwd
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/my_list_name.mbox
$ ls
total 808
-rw-r--r-- 1 hal mailman 825894 Nov 8 15:39 my_list_name.mbox
$
..... then after doing "chmod g+w":
$ pwd
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/my_list_name.mbox
$ ls
total 860
-rw-rw-r-- 1 hal mailman 876548 Dec 12 23:22 my_list_name.mbox
$
2. Viewing the "error" Mailman logfile (to see what's wrong)
------------------------------------------------------------
$ cd /var/log/mailman/
$ more error
3. See what's inside the shunt directory and view their contents
----------------------------------------------------------------
(shunt=messages set aside instead of being archived)
$ cd /var/spool/mailman/shunt/
$ ls
$ /usr/lib/mailman/bin/show_qfiles /var/spool/mailman/shunt/*
4. "Unshunt" messages
---------------------
(put the set aside messages into the archive)
$ /usr/lib/mailman/bin/unshunt
Hal
