[Mailman-Users] Upgrade Mailman 2.1.13 to 2.1.16
Hi All, We are running Mailman 2.1.13 (on Ubuntu) and have been for some time. Recently the SPAM bots have been hitting our subscription addresses so hard the bounces have tripped the filters at Microsoft and blocked a couple of lists addresses until I get them to unblock them. It looks like an upgrade to 2.1.16 might go some way to mitigate this. Unfortunately, Mailman has been running so well for so long, I have forgotten most of what I did to install it in the first place :( Can anyone point me at a good tutorial on how to upgrade from 2.1.13 to 2.1.16? Thanks very much.

If you still have the original directory in which you unpacked Mailman 2.1.13, look in the config.log file for the Invocation command line. Download and unpack 2.1.16 into a new directory. Configure using the same command as before. Stop mailman. As root, run 'make install'. Start mailman. If you don't have the original configure command, you'll have to figure out what options you used. First look in your installed Mailman/Defaults.py. If PREFIX is other than '/usr/local/mailman', set it with --prefix=. If VAR-PREFIX is other than the PREFIX value, set it with --var-prefix=. Likewise, use --with-mailhost= and --with-urlhost= to set DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST and DEFAULT_URL_HOST. See http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node7.html for more info on configure options. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

However, when I now go to the listinfo page I get the Bug in Mailman version 2.1.16 page. Also messages to lists are being returned undeliverable. What's in Mailman's error log? What's in the MTA logs regarding the undeliverable messages? If there are permissions issues, run Mailman's bin/check_perms. If there are group mismatch errors, see http://wiki.list.org/x/tYA9. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
