Hello, We are having some serious problem with a 2.1.2 mailman install. Some messages get transferred to qfiles/shunt and stay there forever. I am calling on your help on this one.
I understand from previous mailing list posts that the shunt directory is used by mailman if: o messages are too large to get delivered o bug in mailman o problem with python installation The original error message (in logs/error) was indicating some problem with the 'strptime' module: This was confirmed: python Python 2.2 (#1, Aug 4 2003, 14:00:57) [GCC 2.95.2 19991024 (release)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import time >>> time.strptime Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'strptime' In the hope of remedying this, I have installed python 2.3 Python 2.3 (#1, Sep 17 2003, 21:23:32) [GCC 2.95.2 19991024 (release)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import time >>> time.strptime <built-in function strptime> As you can see python is now happy with the time.strptime module. I then proceeded to reinstall mailman. All seemed fine. I then proceeded to unshunt the messages... In vain. They come back to the shunt directory. However, the error is different: Sep 18 08:42:40 2003 (15588) Uncaught runner exception: Empty module name Sep 18 08:42:40 2003 (15588) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 105, in _oneloop self._onefile(msg, msgdata) File "/Users/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py", line 155, in _onefile keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/Users/mailman/Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py", line 130, in _dispose more = self._dopipeline(mlist, msg, msgdata, pipeline) File "/Users/mailman/Mailman/Queue/IncomingRunner.py", line 153, in _dopipelin e sys.modules[modname].process(mlist, msg, msgdata) File "/Users/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/ToDigest.py", line 89, in process send_digests(mlist, mboxfp) File "/Users/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/ToDigest.py", line 130, in send_digests send_i18n_digests(mlist, mboxfp) File "/Users/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/ToDigest.py", line 303, in send_i18n_dig ests msg = scrubber(mlist, msg) File "/Users/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py", line 308, in process t = t.encode(charset, 'replace') File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/encodings/__init__.py", line 84, in search_func tion globals(), locals(), _import_tail) ValueError: Empty module name Sep 18 08:42:40 2003 (15588) SHUNTING: 1063634404.28272+cdaf6755effffbc39a35d78f 3db0024abd9cce07 Any ideas?
