hello! i am setting up mailman 3.0 on ubuntu 12.04. but getting errors when i try to work with mailman through the python interpreter. i hope this is the correct list to post to.
here are the steps i took: - installed mailman 3.0.0.b1 in a fresh virtualenv - install is happy, all tests pass (Total: 383 tests, 0 failures, 0 errors in 3 minutes 27.980 seconds.) - default mailman.cfg file, stored in top level mailman dir (eg, it's a sibling to the bin/ directory) - basic postfix config, as descibed here: http://packages.python.org/mailman/src/mailman/docs/MTA.html#postfix - start mailman with bin/mailman start (no errors to be seen) then i go to follow the example on how to create new mailing lists: http://packages.python.org/mailman/src/mailman/commands/docs/create.html but attempting to import mailman packages fails, so it seems the python packages aren't installed? so i run `python setup.py install` in main mailman directory. after that, the imports work, but i get an error at the point of trying to call `command.process(FakeArgs)` as described on the create page. the error is as follows: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/jessykate/virtualenvs/mailman/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mailman-3.0.0b1-py2.7.egg/mailman/commands/cli_lists.py", line 180, in process else system_preferences.preferred_language.code) File "/home/jessykate/virtualenvs/mailman/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mailman-3.0.0b1-py2.7.egg/mailman/core/constants.py", line 53, in preferred_language return getUtility(ILanguageManager)[config.mailman.default_language] File "/home/jessykate/virtualenvs/mailman/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/zope.component-3.12.1-py2.7.egg/zope/component/_api.py", line 169, in getUtility raise ComponentLookupError(interface, name) zope.interface.interfaces.ComponentLookupError: (<InterfaceClass mailman.interfaces.languages.ILanguageManager>, '') FWIW, i have also installed the postorius interface and all seems to work from this approach. i can even verify that the mailing list i created through the postorius interface shows up when i issue `bin/mailman lists`. any idea on how to fix this error? am i missing something? i tried a few other of the instruction pages in the 3.0 docs and all generated errors of some kind. so perhaps i'm just not importing/installing the packages properly? any help greatly appreciated. thanks, -- Jessy http://jessykate.com _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
