[Mailman-Users] move from version 2.0.11 to 2.1.5
I've installed a new server running Fedora 4. I can create a new list, but I have not determined why mailman is not seeing the users from my 2.0.11 list. I copied the lists/ and archives/ dir from the old server to the new one. I have read through the INSTALL and UPGRADE docs following all the steps -- I think. If more details are needed please let me know.

Was it from scratch or did you use our RPM? If you used the RPM then you should look at /usr/share/doc/mailman-*/INSTALL.REDHAT for documentation on the directory structure, you may not have copied the old list data into the locations currently used. -- John Dennis Red Hat Software -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp

Thanks John Mailman was installed via RPM. I actually did have the lists/ and archives/ in the incorrect folder but I have copied them over to /var/lib/mailman now. I ran thse commands after moving the files. However, I still don't see any members listed. Certainly I am missing something else or using these commands incorrectly. /usr/lib/mailman/bin/update -f /usr/lib/mailman/bin/withlist -l -r fix_url a2-16v-list Here is the output [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailman]# bin/withlist -l -r fix_url a2-16v-list Importing fix_url...

I'm guessing that you created the lists on the new installation before you finally got the old lists/ directories in the right place. Thus, you now have new config.pck and config.pck.last files with no members and old config.db and config.db.last files with members that aren't being used because of the presence of the config.pck. If this is the case, just delete the config.pck and config.pck.last. You can then run bin/update [-f], but you shouldn't have to as Mailman will update/convert the config.db when the list is accessed. After you have the converted config.pck, you can delete the config.db and config.db.last. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
