 Do you really mean the sticky bit or are you confusing that with the
 setgid bit? Setgid is the s in the 'group' position (sticky is the
 s in the 'other' position) and is important. If you can, run
 'bin/check_perms -f' as root until it stops reporting errors. This may
 help.
Err, sorry  I misspoke -- I'm no unix guru. A non-working list shows:
drwxrwx---2 root mailman  4096 Aug  2 14:54 database
Vs the working list that shows:
drwxrws---2 mailman  mailman  4096 Aug 24 15:46 database

Running check_perms gives no errors..


 Do you see any errors in Mailman's 'error' log\?
Not a one.

I am this close to exporting the user lists, removing the list, and  
re-adding it.

I think you're problem is with the owner of the file, note the non
working file is owned by root while the working version is owned by
mailman. check_perms does not check ownership, only groups and modes so
it would have missed this. Try this as root:

% chown mailman database

[Mailman-Users] Moved mailman, not arhchiving

2005-08-24 Thread David Clark
Hi,

I have looked everywhere, tried everything, with no luck..

We have recently switched webhosts, and have migrated existing lists  
(about 10 of them).

People can send to the list (it gets broadcasted no problem), and new  
users can join existing lists.

The mail is not being added to the archive, and moderated email  is  
not added to the queue (even though the moderator does get notified  
of pending mail).

I added a new test list, and everything worked fine.

The only difference that I can find is that the db for the new list  
has the sticky bit on..

I need other ideas to try.

Thanks,

---

Re: [Mailman-Users] Moved mailman, not arhchiving

2005-08-24 Thread Robert F. Kennedy
Hello David,

I had a similar problem when I migrated Mailman from one server to
another. As you described everything works except archiving. On my
system running 'bin/check_perms -f' didn't help. The permissions or
ownership were different on the new installation so Mailman couldn't
write to the archive directory. I haven't fixed the problem due to lack
of time and the folks that I am running the lists for said they can live
without archives. 

If you wouldn't mind, please post to the list when you solve this
problem.

Thanks,
Robert
