Hello, I am running Mailman 2.0.8 on FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE with Python 2.0.1 and Sendmail 8.11.6.
I have several message file (.msg) with no corresponding .db files. From the logs, it seems that qrunner determined that the db files were orphaned and removed them. Most messages are delivered without a problem. The log entry: Apr 19 17:08:06 2002 (80652) Unlinking orphaned .db file: /usr/local/mailman/qfiles/9ce5400cd779c86b3ae5adc4a73790d618d0163f.db There are no error messages around this (except that qrunner cannot open the db file it just removed). The message file: -rw-rw-r-- 1 mailnull mailman - 7735 Apr 19 17:08 9ce5400cd779c86b3ae5adc4a73790d618d0163f.msg The system does get busy from time to time (although I cannot correlate the failures to system load), so I am guessing that the message starts to get queued up (the database file is written) then gets held up writing the message file, during which time qrunner starts, finds the .db file and no .msg file, so it removes it. My questions: 1) Is there a way to regenerate the db files so these stuck messages can be delivered? If so, how? 2) Is there a way to keep this from happening in the future? Thank you in advance for you help with this. Mark. ------------------------------------------------------ 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
