I run about eight mailman lists on my server. I noticed that the archive files are being created, but the index.html file that links to the monthly archives is not being generated, so there were only links to older months. What process is supposed to generate these? There must be some cron entry or other that I'm missing. /etc/cron.d/mailman has: 0 8 * * * mailman /usr/bin/python -S /usr/lib/mailman/cron/checkdbs 0 9 * * * mailman /usr/bin/python -S /usr/lib/mailman/cron/disabled 0 12 * * * mailman /usr/bin/python -S /usr/lib/mailman/cron/senddigests 0 5 1 * * mailman /usr/bin/python -S /usr/lib/mailman/cron/mailpasswds 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * mailman /usr/bin/python -S /usr/lib/ mailman/cron/gate_news 27 3 * * * mailman /usr/bin/python -S /usr/lib/mailman/cron/nightly_gzip 57 3 * * * mailman /usr/bin/python -S /usr/lib/mailman/cron/nightly_archives
When I try to run nightly_archives by hand, it says "No archives to process.". I noticed that the script attempts to open mm_cfg.EDITED_ARCHIVES_FILE, but no such file exists on my system. Is mailman supposed to create/update that file whenever a list gets a post? Background: Suse 9.0 Professional, mailman-2.1.2-44. First post to the list; sorry if this has been covered. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDD David Kramer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://thekramers.net DK KD DKK D "If you don't know what your program is supposed to do, DK KD you'd better not start writing it."
