Hello all, I'm hoping someone can point me into a direction that will allow me to rebuild a mailing list that I created about 3 months ago that got corrupt last night. Quick story and then the question.
Story: Having a weird problem where my HDD (linux) goes into read only. when this happens I can't do anything that requires writing. Well this happened last night, and it wouldn't let me umount / init 1 so I had to just power off <gasp>. On bootup fsck couldn't fix all the problems automatically so I had to run fsck manually. There were problems with the file /var/lib/mailman/cincidsm/config.db.last which I was asked to "fix(y)" and I did. Problem: Now, when I email the list, I get a bounce, and error's in the /var/log/mailman/error log. I can't get to the email right now, but the error log show's: admin(1260): [----- Mailman Version: 2.0.11 -----] admin(1260): [----- Traceback ------] admin(1260): Traceback (most recent call last): admin(1260): File "/var/lib/mailman/scripts/driver", line 98, in run_main admin(1260): main() admin(1260): File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Cgi/listinfo.py", line 38, in main admin(1260): FormatListinfoOverview() admin(1260): File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Cgi/listinfo.py", line 84, in FormatListinfoOverview admin(1260): mlist = MailList.MailList(n, lock=0) admin(1260): File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 79, in __init__ admin(1260): self.Load() admin(1260): File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 904, in Load admin(1260): raise Errors.MMCorruptListDatabaseError, e admin(1260): MMCorruptListDatabaseError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/lib/mailman/lists/cincidsm/config.db.last' I also see another error in there: Sep 30 09:40:28 2003 (1260) cincidsm db file was corrupt, using fallback: /var/lib/mailman/lists/cincidsm/config.db.last Sep 30 09:40:28 2003 (1260) cincidsm fallback was corrupt, giving up Sep 30 09:40:28 2003 admin(1260): @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Is there any way to fix this situation without deleting and recreating the list? Are there ways to "rebuild" the config file from the command line? Any help would be greatly appreciated, as until i get this worked out my list it down :-( Thanks, Dallace ------------------------------------------------------ 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 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
