Thanks again for all your help. I checked in last night and mailman was hung again, but this time I saw that the OutgoingRunner process was missing, and there are errors in the error log:
Sep 23 08:10:17 2006 (2180) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit (pid: 1592, sig: None, sts: 1, class: OutgoingRunner, slice: 1/1) [restarting] Sep 23 08:10:18 2006 (1602) OutgoingRunner qrunner started. Sep 23 08:11:34 2006 (2435) Master qrunner detected subprocess exit (pid: 1598, sig: None, sts: 1, class: OutgoingRunner, slice: 1/1) [restarting] Sep 23 08:11:34 2006 (2435) Qrunner OutgoingRunner reached maximum restart limit of 10, not restarting. Will add a check to kick mailman if OutgoingRunner is not running, although I'd like to understand why OutgoingRunner is dying. Another question: is there any parallelism of processing files in the out queue or are they done sequentially? We have one very big list with 751 members that takes quite a while to get through any one message, and it seems like when I had a couple of messages in qfiles/out for this list, that messages for my little test list weren't going through. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
