Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mailman
This bug report is for: Description: Ubuntu lucid (development branch) Release: 10.04 mailman: Installed: 1:2.1.13-1 Candidate: 1:2.1.13-1 It would appear that there is a permission problem for the directory /var/lib/mailman/archives/private: drwxrws--- 8 root www-data 4096 2010-03-21 02:40 private By default, this directory is created with group www-data. This prevents Mailman scripts from accessing the archive as these scripts are run with set group ID "list". As a result, nothing is written into the archive. A typical error from /var/log/mailman/error looks like this: Mar 21 02:38:19 2010 (29405) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 120, in _oneloop self._onefile(msg, msgdata) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 191, in _onefile keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Queue/ArchRunner.py", line 73, in _dispose mlist.ArchiveMail(msg) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/Archiver.py", line 198, in ArchiveMail self.__archive_to_mbox(msg) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/Archiver.py", line 167, in __archive_to_mbox mbox = self.__archive_file(afn) File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/Archiver.py", line 155, in __archive_file return Mailbox.Mailbox(open(afn, 'a+')) IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/test.mbox/test.mbox' ** Affects: mailman (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Private Archive Permissions Are Incorrect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/543148 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mailman in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
