Im attempting to setup mailman (v2.0.8) on a FreeBSD machine with qmail, and not having too much luck. Hopefully some of you have some ideas :)
First problem was that mailman couldnt send out messages. This was fixed by correctly setting my SMTPHOST in mm_cfg.py. In accordance with README.QMAIL, ive added some users that qmail runs under to the 'mailman' group, and then allowed group read-write on the mailman directory. I was unsure which qmail user actually needed access, so i setup multiple users to do so: > grep mailman /etc/group mailman:*:1010:qmaill,qmails,qmailr > ps aux | grep qmail qmails 398 0.0 0.4 940 468 con- I Tue05PM 0:05.46 qmail-send qmaill 406 0.0 0.4 880 440 con- I Tue05PM 0:02.35 splogger qmail root 407 0.0 0.3 880 372 con- I Tue05PM 0:01.19 qmail-lspawn ./Mailbox qmailr 408 0.0 0.3 880 432 con- I Tue05PM 0:00.52 qmail-rspawn qmailq 409 0.0 0.3 868 388 con- I Tue05PM 0:00.90 qmail-clean root 416 0.0 0.4 896 480 con- I Tue05PM 0:02.01 tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.ch we have some virtual domains setup, and utilize vpopmail. one domain is xxx.net, and the domain i want mailman to work with is dev.xxx.net. > cat /usr/local/vpopmail/domains/dev.xxxx.net/.qmail-default |/usr/local/bin/python /home/mailman/qmail-to-mailman.py | /usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox (the qmail-to-mailman.py script is the one from the mailman/contrib/ directory). python is an acceptable version: > python Python 2.2 (#1, Jan 3 2002, 21:54:19) [GCC 2.95.3 [FreeBSD] 20010315 (release)] on freebsd4 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. if i take out the qmail-to-mailman.py from domain/dev.xxxx.net/.qmail-default, all mail to dev.xxxx.net bounces, as it should because of the 'bounce-no-mailbox' line after it. thus, i suspect that qmail-to-mailman.py is getting the mail but (silently) dropping or not doing what it should be doing with it. /home/mailman/logs has some things of interest: > tail post (some lines removed because they are all the same/similar) Apr 12 21:03:03 2002 (80009) post to test1-work from [EMAIL PROTECTED], size=767, 1 failures Apr 12 21:04:01 2002 (80021) post to test2-mmantest from [EMAIL PROTECTED], size=783, 1 failures Apr 12 21:04:02 2002 (80021) post to testproj-test from [EMAIL PROTECTED], size=779, 1 failures Apr 12 21:04:02 2002 (80021) post to test1-work from [EMAIL PROTECTED], size=767, 1 failures > tail smtp Apr 12 21:04:01 2002 (80021) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.199 seconds Apr 12 21:04:02 2002 (80021) All recipients refused: (61, 'Connection refused') Apr 12 21:04:02 2002 (80021) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.156 seconds Apr 12 21:04:02 2002 (80021) All recipients refused: (61, 'Connection refused') Apr 12 21:04:02 2002 (80021) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.164 seconds Apr 12 21:04:55 2002 (80029) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.319 seconds Apr 12 21:05:02 2002 (80052) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.458 seconds Apr 12 21:05:03 2002 (80052) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.416 seconds Apr 12 21:05:03 2002 (80052) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.432 seconds Apr 12 21:07:56 2002 (80084) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.296 seconds > tail qrunner Apr 12 20:53:02 2002 (79833) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 20:55:03 2002 (79869) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 20:57:02 2002 (79910) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 20:58:02 2002 (79919) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 20:59:02 2002 (79929) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 21:00:03 2002 (79956) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 21:02:02 2002 (79996) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 21:03:02 2002 (80010) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 21:04:02 2002 (80022) Could not acquire qrunner lock Apr 12 21:05:03 2002 (80047) Could not acquire qrunner lock anyone have any ideas? is there a place where the i can get more information on the problem mailman is having besides 'size=767, 1 failures'? any ideas/help would be much appreciated. -tom ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
