Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED] ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): | Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2001 18:49:50 +0000 | From: Simon Blandford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Subject: [Mailman-Users] Compile error | | I get the following after a while when I type make install... | | Compiling /home/mailman/Mailman/versions.py ... | Traceback (innermost last): | File "bin/update", line 32, in ? | from Mailman import MailList | File "/home/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 41, in ? | from Mailman.ListAdmin import ListAdmin | File "/home/mailman/Mailman/ListAdmin.py", line 33, in ? | from Mailman import Message | File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Message.py", line 30, in ? | import sha | ImportError: No module named sha | | I have installed python 2.0 in it's own directory (not at root level) | and set the prefix to point to that binary.

I too had problems installing Mailman, and "make install" failed in the same place (Compiling ...versions.py). I struggled with several versions of python on the machine I installed Mailman on, and noticed that --with-python didn't do any good when it came to "make install". It looks like "make install" uses the python in your $PATH. I temporarily switched /usr/bin/python (old version) with version 2.0 of python (I'm root), and this did the trick. I first tried to copy python (2.0) to Mailman's bin-directory, and did export PATH=~mailman/bin:$PATH but this gave me other problems. Maybe you could ask root to upgrade python? - M ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
