I'm really hoping that someone can help me with this: Mailman says that it's lost 4 messages. There's no trace of them in mailman/data, and in /mailman/logs/vette, they're all listed as discarded posting -- does that mean that a list admin discarded them? if so, then why do they appear as lost messages on the admin web page, and is there any relationship to the bug message that's appearing at the bottom of the admin requests page? for what's worth, I'm running Mailman 2.0.5 on a Redhat 7.1 machine. here's the error from the log: <--begin snip from logs:> Jun 15 10:57:37 2001 admin(27298): @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ admin(27298): [----- Mailman Version: 2.0.5 -----] admin(27298): [----- Traceback ------] admin(27298): Traceback (innermost last): admin(27298): File "/var/mailman//scripts/driver", line 96, in run_main admin(27298): main() admin(27298): File "/var/mailman//Mailman/Cgi/admindb.py", line 116, in main admin(27298): mlist.Save() admin(27298): File "/var/mailman//Mailman/MailList.py", line 859, in Save admin(27298): self.SaveRequestsDb() admin(27298): File "/var/mailman//Mailman/ListAdmin.py", line 93, in SaveRequestsDb admin(27298): self.__closedb() admin(27298): File "/var/mailman//Mailman/ListAdmin.py", line 80, in __closedb admin(27298): fp = open(self.__filename, 'w') admin(27298): IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/mailman/lists/oc/request.db' admin(27298): [----- Python Information -----] admin(27298): sys.version = 1.5.2 (#1, Aug 25 2000, 09:33:37) [GCC 2.96 20000731 (experimental)] admin(27298): sys.executable = /usr/bin/python admin(27298): sys.prefix = /usr admin(27298): sys.exec_prefix= /usr admin(27298): sys.path = /usr admin(27298): sys.platform = linux-i386 <--end log snip> any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks much, Arif -- Arif Mamdani ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
