It was syntax problems: First, I had added a comment as a note to myself within the configure_args block, so that if I needed to revert I'd have the exact line. I should have known not to put it in the block. After I moved the comment to before the block, I left the comment with a trailing \, as that was at the end of the original line. Unfortunately, that threw things off also. Removing the \ got the installation working correctly and it's now up and running. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

[Mailman-Users] Group mismatch again.
Hey folks, I'm doing an upgrade/reinstall on one of my servers, and when I put Mailman back on I'm getting a group mismatch error. It's happened to me before, but I don't remember the exact procedure to make it work properly. The setup: Moving from Mac OS 10.8.5 to 10.9.4, on a MAMP setup, everything installed using MacPorts. Upgrading MySQL, PHP, and PostgreSQL in the process. MacPorts hasn't upgraded Mailman beyond 2.1.13 (a separate issue I may want to address later). Right now I'm doing test runs on a backup to make sure all the pieces and parts will work properly when I do the update for real. I have all the other parts in place but I'm now getting the dreaded group mismatch error from Mailman. When I first installed everything I installed Mailman before PostgreSQL, and the feedback told me that I needed either to compile Mailman as --with-mail-gid=postgresql or change the mail server (standard Mac installation of Postfix) to run as group _mailman. I uninstalled and reinstalled Mailman and now it's telling me that I need to compile Mailman as --with-mail-gid=staff. I changed the setting in MacPorts' file from --with-mail-gid=_mailman to --with-mail-gid=staff and attempted to reinstall, but I'm getting an error that it's Unable to open port - invalid command name '--with-mail-gid=staff'. Anyone have any ideas of where to go from here? I'd rather not do a direct download/compile of Mailman if possible, as MacPorts spreads the pieces and parts into a number of directories and I'd probably have a heck of a time getting all the paths working correctly again. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
