I'm creating an ezmlm list using the automated tools available to me while using qmailadmin. The list works great, up until I turn on Moderation. As soon as I turn moderation on, I get the following in a failure notice:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: ezmlm-gate: fatal: unable to execute /usr/local/bin/ezmlm/ezmlm-send '/home/vpopmail/domains/psi-np.org/all': file does not exist ezmlm-gate: fatal: fatal error from child
I'm not aware of a bug in QmailAdmin 1.0.6 that would cause that, but I personally made extensive changes to mailinglist.c in the development versions of qmailadmin and corrected many errors related to setting up and modifying mailing lists.
Then, when I turn moderation back off, the qmailadmin interface complains with the following:
file permission error .qmail-all-accept-default file permission error .qmail-all-reject-default
This was fixed as well. Due to a bug in ezmlm, those two files weren't getting deleted when turning moderation off. There's code in QmailAdmin to remove the files after calling ezmlm-make.
How should I proceed in order to get this goofy thing to work as
advertised? I've dug through archives and google, and unfortunately the
only info I can turn up is outdated (over 2-3 years old), referring to
an improper path (Which is fine in my install). I appreciate any insight
you all may be able to offer!
You can read up on how ezmlm-make works, and manually turn moderation on from the command line.
You can try the development releases of vpopmail and qmailadmin. I personally use vpopmail 5.3.20 and qmailadmin 1.0.26 on my hosting server. There's no guarantee that there aren't bugs in those releases, but there are known bugs in vpopmail 5.2.1 and qmailadmin 1.0.6.
You could wait until we release new stable versions of the vpopmail and qmailadmin that properly handle mailing list setup.
