What happens if you run this command directly from the shell? It is possible I have bad error handling somewhere which is hiding the real error message... Could you maybe try: PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = 'strace /usr/bin/lurker-index -l imc-sysadmin -m > /tmp/logs 2>&1' ... so we can see what exactly lurker is doing? > /var/log/mailman/error gives: > Jun 17 19:42:58 2003 (5300) external archiver non-zero exit status: 1 > > if i try > PUBLIC_EXTERNAL_ARCHIVER = '|/usr/bin/lurker-index -l imc-sysadmin -m > /tmp/logs > 2>&1' Is the | here perhaps in error? (I know nothing about mailman) PS.
