RE: [Mailman-Users] qrunner keeps locking cron
Thanks, Jon. I checked the file sizes in the archive directory but they seem to be rather insignificant. The list that is causing the problems has 6000+ users but they only mail 2-3 times a month. Do you think the size of the list is what is causing qrunner and then cron to lock up? I'm sure mailman can handle large lists and it has always been able to handle this list before..

We have several large lists on our server and they have run without problem for a couple of years now. However, recently it seems that qrunner is locking up when it tries to process the queue and in the process, it stalls the cron daemon as well. The only thing we have been able to do is monitor cron, detect when its not working, kill and restart the cron process, and then manually run the mailman qrunner program. Definitely not optimal.

I've set the permission on the privacy page for each of the 4 lists on our server, yet they're not showing up when I run http://www.mysql.org/mailman/listinfo They are meant to be advertised lists yet they're not showing up. Short answer: set VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW=0 in mm_cfg.py. Long answer: If you go to: http://mysql.org/mailman/listinfo you can see them. The list hostname is set to mysql.org instead of www.mysql.org. Changing the list hostname should fix it. Mailman includes some virtual hosting features that will limit the list of lists to those for the current virtual host. It does this by matching the list hostname with the http hostname. However, this is a case-sensitive match, so if you change the list hostname to www.mysql.org, then http://www.mysql.org/mailman/listinfo will work, but http://www.MySQL.org/mailman/listinfo will not. You can avoid this problem by setting VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW=0 in mm_cfg.py. This will cause Mailman to advertise all public lists, regardless of the http hostname. -James -- James Watson Futuristic Technologies, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED]716 South Main St. (229) 985 - 7515 Moultrie, GA 31768 www.FuturisTech.net -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Joshua S.

[Mailman-Users] List user management problems
I am running Mailman 2.0.6 on a Compaq Tru64 UNIX 5.1 system.
I reviewd the open bugs at SourceForge and didn't see a problem such
as this described there. I tried posting this using the bug reporting
mechanism at SourceForge, but when I tried to just use my e-mail
address, my browser crashed. I thought I'd post it here to to see if
someone else had seen a problems such as this.
To begin, I created a list, ms-adm, which seemed to go fine.
When I tried to add a list of users using the adminstrator's
membership management page, while the users were subscribed, eg. list
admins received a subscription notification mail message with the
correct subscriber addresses, and the users show up as members using
the list_members command, they never got a welcome message with their
password.
This problem seems to be intermittent, I added two users at the outset
on the Membership Management page and they got a welcome message with
their password, but when I entered a larger group (17 users) they
seemed to be added, but never got the welcome message.
In addition, when I do a dumpdb, I see entries foreach of this second
group of users which look like:
'bounce_info': { '[EMAIL PROTECTED]': [1004707923.71, 2.0, 2.0],

'[EMAIL PROTECTED]': [ 1004707896.47,
2.0,
2.0]},
One of the users I added was [EMAIL PROTECTED], another was
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Also, during list setup, I never changed any of the bounce options.
If these users go to the listinfo page enter their address, eg.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] for instance, and click edit options they see
[EMAIL PROTECTED], rather than [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This is the _only_ list I'm having problems with.
It seems I should only have the list administrators in the bounce_info
variables, or is that an incorrect assumption? How can I fix the
database? I am unsure of the python syntax.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

[Mailman-Users] Reply-To ignored
I just discovered somewhat odd behavior in mailman-2.0.7. When sending to the list, it only used my "From" address and failed to honor the "Reply-To" header. While I don't have a problem with it using "From" to determine whether a posting should be held for a moderated list, I was wondering why the "Reply-To" wasn't used when the message was actually sent out. Is there some configuration tweak I can use to get it to honor that header? Scott

[Mailman-Users] gate_news raising NNTPProtocolError exceptions
Hi.
I'm trying to setup an email feed of a couple of large Usenet news
groups.
Articles seem to be flowing happily, although I'm getting a dozen or
so exceptions each day. It may be related to the number of aricles being
retrieved, as I get these exceptions everytime gate_news is run until
I perform a catchup on the news group. I was also getting the exceptions
much more often until I started running gate_news every 60 seconds
instead
of once every five minutes.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
My client is a NetBSD box running Python 2.1.1 and Mailman 2.0.6.
The upstream news server is a DNews server, or a NetCache (which talks
to the same DNews server) - same problem with both.
