Re: [Mailman-Users] Updating MM 2.1.2 - 2.1.5 stucks
update exits at this point, but the next time it is run, the error does not appear any more (- I have to run 'update' three times to get rid of all these errors). These errors always appear, when 'update' is run after MM 2.1.2 has been used. OK. You have done with update to 2.1.5. Don't go back to 2.1.2. I cannot use 2.1.5: It does not deliver any mails after giving me the following errors (around 20 times) at start time: --- # mailmanctl start Starting Mailman's master qrunner. # Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/bin/qrunner, line 270, in ? main() File /usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/bin/qrunner, line 230, in main qrunner.run() File /usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py, line 70, in run filecnt = self._oneloop() File /usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py, line 99, in _oneloop msg, msgdata = self._switchboard.dequeue(filebase) File /usr/pack/mailman-2.1.5-inf/Mailman/Queue/Switchboard.py, line 147, in dequeue data = cPickle.load(fp) EOFError [...] # --- 2.1.2 at least still delivers mails.

[Mailman-Users] mailman not working on virtual host ???
hi I am trying to configure mailman on my postfix server (postfix-1.1.11-114) using virtual domain.

Now it seems that when I drop a mail to my newly created mailman list.

[Mailman-Users] Migration to a new server - issues
Hello, I recently migrated mailman from our catch-all server to a dedicated listserv server. The process I used was as follows: 1.) Create lists on new server based on list_lists on old server 1.) Stop mail on old server (Postfix stop) and new server 2.) Insert temporary redirect away from web interface on old server 3.) Rsync /var/lib/mailman/lists and /var/lib/mailman/archives from old server to new server 4.) Change DNS and setup forwards from the old server for people slow to update their DNS 5.) Bring everything back up This seemed to go well, and list activity continued as normal on the new server, until 9 am the next day, when mailman's bounce processing disabled about 200 list members from various list,, and deleted 100 or so more. It did not continue this pattern the following day. I have intact membership lists I can drop in, but don't know why it happened, and so am hesitant to move blindly forward. The membership list was up to date, as we were using fairly stringent bounce processing on the old server. Any ideas on why that would occur? Was my migration process flawed? Assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Migration to a new server - issues
That's not the process I would use, but I don't see where it should have been a problem. Unless somehow bad characters got inserted into those addresses and caused them to bounce. What did the bounces say? What do you see in your MTA log about these addresses? That's the interesting part - the MTA log doesn't show any bounces from those addresses. It successfully delivered each warning message, and then disabled the user anyway. The mailman log file doesn't show the individual messages, only when each user was disabled or deleted.

[Mailman-Users] Load-balancing Mailman in LVS cluster
Hi there, I'm a new user of Mailman, and a new subscriber to this list. I want to set up Mailman in a load-balanced fashion on two servers running within an LVS (linux virtual server) cluster. I want the two servers to act as the same Mailman instance. The two servers will mount an NFS shared directory from a third server, and the NFS mount will, I guess, contain the shared Mailman stuff. I've found a few things on the web about load-balancing Mailman, but not much. The following directories exist in $prefix/mailman: archives * bin cgi-bin cron data * icons lists * locks * logs mail Mailman * messages pythonlib qfiles scripts spam templates tests Can anybody suggest which of these directories should be NFS shared between the two servers? To me, it looks like good candidates would be those that I have marked with an * ... Further, is anyone running Mailman in a load-balanced fashion like this? Any hints/tricks/tips?
