[Mailman-Users] Lists nested in other lists

2007-01-25 Thread Ken Cheney
I know I have seen some documentation on being able to have lists nested in 
other lists.  I can't seem to locate it now.
   
  What I want to do is have someone subscribe to a list such as - hockey player 
- and by virtue of subscribing to that list they are part of the Athletics list.
   
  So they will then receive messages sent to both the Athletics list and the 
Hockey Player lists.
   
  Is this possible?

What you're looking for are umbrella lists.

Basically, the 'hockey players list' is a member of the 'Athletics'
list. There are some options to help with this, such as setting the
Athletics list not to send password reminders (since the password
reminder would go to all of the hockey players list.

[Mailman-Users] Problems Exim: Child process of mailman_transport transport returned 2

2007-01-25 Thread sascha . kaempf
Hi list,

I have just installed Mailman and run into a problem i can not understand:

2007-01-25 15:47:41 1HA5t7-0005Xc-Gb ** [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=mailman_router 
T=mailman_transport: Child process of mailman_transport transport returned 2 
from command: /usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman

Mails can not be delivery to Mailman. I´m using Mailman 2.1.9 in combination 
with Exim 4.63.

The problem has been, that the mail-gid was different, than what Mailman 
expected:

Group mismatch error.  Mailman expected the mail
wrapper script to be executed as group mail, but
the system's mail server executed the mail script as
group root.  Try tweaking the mail server to run the
script as group mail, or re-run configure,
providing the command line option `--with-mail-gid=root'.

So I did a make clean followed by:

./configure --with-mail-gid=mail --with-cgi-gid=www-data --with-mail-gid=root
i also tried
./configure --with-mail-gid=mail --with-cgi-gid=www-data --with-mail-gid=0
followed by make install.

Both should work, no ?

h1055564:/tmp/mailman-2.1.9# cat /etc/group | grep root
root:x:0:

Once done I stopped Exim  mailmanctl and started both applications again.

Still, I receive the error mentioned above but I can not find any mistake:

h1055564:/tmp/mailman-2.1.9# /usr/local/mailman/bin/check_perms -f
Keine Probleme aufgetreten
h1055564:/tmp/mailman-2.1.9# /usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post
post script got no listname.

Any idea? Perhaps it is a stupid error I´ve just overlooked but I run out of 
ideas -;(

Regards
Sascha

Read the error message again.  It told you to use --with-mail-gid=root
and you turned around and ran it with --with-mail-gid=mail.  How could
you possibly expect that to work?

Although if mail is operating with gid root, your mail server is
seriously badly configured.

No. You can configure with

./configure --with-mail-gid=root --with-cgi-gid=www-data

(i.e., don't just add --with-mail-gid=root; you also have to remove
--with-mail-gid=mail) or you can put

group = mail

in the mailman-transport in your Exim configuration.

[Mailman-Users] Mailman log rotation

2007-01-25 Thread Hank van Cleef
I want to put the Mailman logs into the Solaris logadm.conf file 
for automatic cron rotation.

This moves the old logfiles to logfiles.0 and touches new logfiles.
I'm assuming that the qrunners have to be restarted.  Anything else?

Qrunners don't need to be restarted, just log files reopened

  /path/to/bin/mailmanctl reopen

That should be sufficient.

Hi,

 ./configure --with-mail-gid=mail --with-cgi-gid=www-data
 --with-mail-gid=root
 i also tried
 ./configure --with-mail-gid=mail --with-cgi-gid=www-data --with-mail-gid=0
 followed by make install.

 No. You can configure with
 
 ./configure --with-mail-gid=root --with-cgi-gid=www-data
 
 (i.e., don't just add --with-mail-gid=root; you also have to remove
 --with-mail-gid=mail) or you can put

Okay, did that 

make clean
./configure --with-mail-gid=root --with-cgi-gid=www-data
make install
Stop  Start MTA and Mailman

but sill:

Child process of mailman_transport transport returned 2 from command: 
/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman


 group = mail
 
 in the mailman-transport in your Exim configuration.

Did this as well: Changed the group to mail, stopped and started exim and then
make clean
./configure --with-mail-gid=mail --with-cgi-gid=www-data
make install
Stop and Start Mailman but still

Child process of mailman_transport transport returned 2 from command: 
/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman

I´m running out of ideas ;(

Kind regards
Sascha
