Hi, I installed mailman and go for "Check Installation phase" as per mailman Installation Manual
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/mailman$ bin/check_perms -f Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/check_perms", line 45, in <module> from Mailman import mm_cfg ImportError: cannot import name mm_cfg Regards Smita ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Oct 24, 2007 9:03 PM Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] : Problem Running mailman To: QA Engg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Mailman-Users@python.org QA Engg wrote: > >I tried the procedure to install mailman from the Wikipedia and >following errors > >>>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ emerge -p mailman >bash: emerge: command not found [...] You are trying to follow instructions for a package and perhaps even an OS which you do not have. >>>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ # groups mailman >>>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cron mailman >cron: can't open or create /var/run/crond.pid: Permission denied >>>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ # cd /usr/local/mailman/cron && crontab -u mailman >crontab.in > >>>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ # su - mailman In 3 of the four lines, the '#' you typed is actually the 'root' shell prompt in the example you are copying. Thus you are typing comments, not commands. >>>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ $ cd /usr/local/mailman/cron >bash: $: command not found Here and in the following you typed a '$' prompt as opposed to the '#' above so bash told you there is no '$' command. You need to get some help and instruction from somone who knows something about Unix/Linux. That is beyond the scope of the mailman-users@python.org list. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
