The above traceback is not from the error in inviting. It is from an error that occurred in trying to accept (or possibly not accept) an invitation or some other subscription confirmation. It was generated by the confirm CGI, not the admin CGI. I don't have time to look at it in more detail for a couple of days, but I will. It could be due to some corruption in the list's pending database caused by the invite error. >This error didn't really tell me what was wrong, but I guess I'm just >not reading it right.

I think the 'invite large list' error is the CGI running into an Apache imposed CPU time limit and thus being killed and not given a chance to log any error. You may find more info in the apache error_log. See <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq06.018.htp> which has to do with memory limits and MemoryError from Mailman/Python, but in this case, you would be looking for an RLimitCPU directive in your Apache config, not RLimitMEM. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
