OK, thanks.

The problem appears to be with the creation of (in this case)
'/usr/local/mailman/lists/sis_directors/config.pck.tmp.lists.19678'


Is there some type of numbering system for
>config.pck.tmp, is this related to a cron job
>
>IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:
>'/usr/local/mailman/lists/sis_directors/config.pck.tmp.lists.19678'


The number is the PIP of the process that's trying to update the
config.pck.

config.pck files are not updated directly since if they were, a failure
during the update could leave the file corrupt. They are updated as
follows:

A file is created named config.pck.tmp.host.pid where host is the name
of the host on which the process is running and pid is the process id
of the process. This file is written with the updated data. Then,
config.pck.last is removed, config.pck is renamed to config.pck.last
and finally config.pck.tmp.host.pid is renamed to config.pck.

Thus, except during the update process itself, there are only
config.pck and config.pck.last files. If there are problems creating
config.pck.tmp.host.pid, either the ownership/permissions of the
superordinate directories is not correct or the process doing the
updating is not running in Mailman's group.

Note that you will need to restart Mailman after applying the patch and
before running bin/unshunt.

This is a problem in the 2.1.12rc1 release. See the post at

for the fix. There are a couple of other problems too. I will be
releasing 2.1.12rc2 in a day or so.

Your MTA is not accepting connects from Mailman, at least part of the
time. See the FAQ at  for debugging hints
if this is an ongoing problem.

The not archiving is the issue referred to above. Once you apply the
patch from
,
you can check that you have no 'old' files in qfiles/shunt and run
bin/unshunt to archive the the messages that were shunted during
archiving.

This is an MTA issue. Were these list's working before the upgrade?

You can remove a specific language with language code xx by putting the
following in mm_cfg.py.

del LC_DESCRIPTIONS['xx']

You can repeat that to remove multiple languages.

You can remove all languages except English by putting the following in
mm_cfg.py.


LC_DESCRIPTIONS.clear()
add_language('en', 'English (USA)', 'us-ascii', 'ltr')

Mark,
 
You are my new HERO! Hit the bricks Cpt. Marvel. If I were there... I'd kiss 
you!... Well, maybe not!
 
It all is now working perfectly even my moved list.
 
I removed the suspect config.pck file, re-copied over the original good one, 
then paid much closer attention to file ownership and permissions before 
re-running the withlist and arch commands again.
 
Thank You... Thank You Mark and others for your help!

This is because the moved list's liusts/LISTNAME/config.pck file is
corrupt.

The first step is to remove the config.pck. If there is a
config.pck.last, it may be OK. If there is no config.pck.last, or it's
not OK remove all lists/LISTNAME/config.pck* files for this list. Then
the admin and listinfo overviews will work.

This may be the cause of the current problem, or it may be because
there was some problem with the original config.pck that you moved.

This is all because of the one corrupt config.pck.

You don't need to do that. That is only to identify which list's
config.pck is corrupt, but we know that because you can't get to the
moved list's admin or listinfo pages so it is the config.pck for the
moved list which has the problem.

So new subscribers are getting mime digests by default, but the
subscribers who are seeing the messape/rfc822 part scrubbed are still
getting plain digests. Uncheck their 'plain' box on the Membership
Management pages and save those changes.

What release did you upgrade from?

What's in Mailman's logs?

What's in Mailman's qfiles/in/ directory?

What are the other two high cpu runners (pids 4951 and 4946)?

Does Mailman work normally except for this high cpu usage?

I assume you mean the Subscriber List linked from the list's listinfo
page, i.e. the roster at a URL like
.

There's no way to include real names on this list without modifying
code, but see the FAQ at  for other ways
to get a list which may include real names.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Question on Digest E-mails

So, I reviewed every setting that I can think of which I have listed below that 
would be involved with the problem that I have on the attachments being 
scrubbed.
 
filter_content = no
pass_mime_types =blank
pass_filename_extensions=blank
collapse_alternatives=yes
convert_html_to_plaintext=no
nondigestable=no
scrub_nondigest=no
digest_is_default = yes
mime_is_default_digest=mime
 
Still is scrubbing the attachments.  I am stumped.  Any ideas, besides canning 
our Groupwise e-mail system which we will be come Summer.
 
Thanks for all the suggestions though.  Appreciate the help

I'm just guessing here, but I'm betting that you are sending your digest 
out with the actual messages as MIME attachments rather than textual 
copy in a new message.  (Note:  I think this is a good thing, so keep it 
up.)

However I'm betting that Mailman is seeing the individual messages as 
attachments and is scrubbing them because it does not know about the 
MIME type, or more likely it is not an allowed MIME type.

Go to Content Filtering -> pass_mime_types and make sure that 
multipart/digest, message/rfc822 and possibly text/rfc822-headers are 
included in the list.  message/rfc822 is the standard attachment like 
you would receive if I forwarded a message to you (as an attachment).

(Please refer to section 5.1.5 of RFC 2046 for more information.)

I don't know if this will solve your problem or not, but at least it's a 
direction to look in to.

Please let us know if this solves the problem as if it does, I propose 
that multipart/digest and message/rfc822 get added to the default 
allowed MIME types.

To change a users address, see

To change the mod bit see the withlist script at

This is because the moved list's liusts/LISTNAME/config.pck file is
corrupt.

The first step is to remove the config.pck. If there is a
config.pck.last, it may be OK. If there is no config.pck.last, or it's
not OK remove all lists/LISTNAME/config.pck* files for this list. Then
the admin and listinfo overviews will work.

This may be the cause of the current problem, or it may be because
there was some problem with the original config.pck that you moved.

This is all because of the one corrupt config.pck.

You don't need to do that. That is only to identify which list's
config.pck is corrupt, but we know that because you can't get to the
moved list's admin or listinfo pages so it is the config.pck for the
moved list which has the problem.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Help

[Jeff Bernier]

Mark,
 
No... I cannot get to the moved lists URL. I get the same Bug in Mailman 
message. I seem to be able to do all the administrative and subscriber tasks 
with all other lists. the individual lists URLs will work... I just can no 
longer get to the main Mailman list page at: 
http://mailman-host-name/mailman/listinfo or: 
http://mailman-host-name/mailman/admin.
 
Additionally, I don't thing the withlist command was successful for the list I 
attempted to move. And other Mailman commands seem to fail as well, such as 
list_lists, and list_admins, producing similar results as what I had forwarded 
below.
 
I will take a look at the link you noted to try to determine where the fault 
is. Of course, ultimately, it's my fault.
 
I'm very new to Unix based commands, and Mailman in general, so I really 
appreciate your patience and assistance here.
 
Regards,
Jeff

How about the list you just moved?

Both the above traceback from list_lists and the Bug from the listinfo
overview page say that the lists/LISTNAME/config.pck file is corrupt
for some list. The most likely candidate is the list you just moved,
but if the withlist fix_url worked, that one should be OK.

See the post at

for a way to find out which list has the problem config.pck.

After downloading and installing the latest version of mailman-2.1.12rc1

[Mailman-Users] Turn off Display of Additional Languages

Hello,

Was wondering if there is a way to turn off the display of additional

Is this something that can be done via mm_cfg.py? Thanks.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Permissions problems

[Melinda Gilmore]

Mark,  thanks for the info that did work for that particular error.  But I
keep getting this one, and the number at the end changes.   So I have to
keep adding a file.  Is there some type of numbering system for
config.pck.tmp, is this related to a cron job

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:
'/usr/local/mailman/lists/sis_directors/config.pck.tmp.lists.19678'

So the user who's crontab ran this does not have permission to create
the file.

Try doing

su - user

where user is the user who's crontab this is, followed by

touch /usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mailman/2007-October.txt.gz
