mailman-2.1.29_6, FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p10 After an unscheduled power cut by our hosting provider, one of the mailing lists hosted on this server came back up with a config.pck file containing 0 bytes. The file's timestamp corresponded to the time of the power loss.
As a result, bin commands such as 'list_lists' would return a corrupt database error, and overnight cron jobs wouldn't run. This was only for one list; other lists on the same server were OK. I've restored the config.pck file from a backup and things seem to be OK now. Just checking, though: 1. Have others encountered config.pck corruption from power loss? 2. (putting on my tinfoil paranoid hat) Is there any chance the file corruption occurred due to an intrusion attempt, and not the power loss? Thanks! dn ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
