[Mailman-Users] Excessive cpu usage

2003-05-28 Thread Arnar Birgisson
Hello I'm running mailman 2.1 on a linux machine. My problem is that the mailman qrunner daemon constantly consumes 65-95% of cpu time. Nothing shows up in the logs while this goes on. Any ideas of how to locate the fault? Arnar -- Mailman-User

Hello.. and thanks for the response. I probably should have mentioned that there is currently no traffic on the server.. no messages are being sent and all queues are empty. Arnar >>> "Josep L. Guallar-Esteve" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 28.5.2003 13:46:01 >>> On Wednesday 28 May 2003 09:24 am, Arnar B

Something of the sort yes.. if I stop mailman, there is one message in the out queue. However, using dumpdb reveals that this is just a normal message being posted to a list, not a confirm message. dumpdb on the .db file gives (I have replaced @ with 'at' in email addresses..) { 'decorated': 1,

2003-05-29 Thread Jon Carnes
In some cases this problem is caused by the way that the MTA handles local deliveries (where there is a problem with the local user). In postfix for example, the default install has local bounces mis-identified so that Mailman will try, try again to deliver to a bogus local user address. Nothing

Thanks.. This episode does bring up some thoughts though. My problem was for the most part that I didn't know where to look ("ps aux | grep mail" would have made a good place to start, but that was my fault :o), and the logs didn't give me anything. Failure to contact an smtp server should perhaps

Check your postfix configuration and make sure you have changed the bounce code for local users. Postfix initially sets this to a "retry" error code, which means that a errantly typed local username in a mail will literally bounce forever. Get a few of those going, and you can really peg the CPU.
