My apologies in advance for such a noob question. I run mailman on
opensuse and I've just upgraded to opensuse 11.0 which provides
mailman 2.1.9, postfix 2.5.1 and apache2 2.2.8.
Before the upgrade, I saved the archives of my club's slow moving
mailing list. I ran
cp -a <mailman>/archives/private/club <safe-place>/archives/private/club
cp -a <mailman>/lists/club <safe-place>/lists/club
based on the mv's in
http://wiki.list.org/viewpage.action?pageId=4030617 . After the
upgrade and reinstallation of mailman, I created a new list "club",
and then installed the archives.
cp -a <safe-place>/archives/private/club <mailman>/archives/private/club
cp -a <safe-place>/lists/club <mailman>/lists/club
I checked permissions and ownership with bin/check-perms, restarted
mailman and postfix, visited my list with a browser and found my
membership list, and past messages. Then I sent a small message to
the list. I received a copy but none of the list members received
it. It sits in <mailman>/archives/private/club.mbox/club.mbox and
doesn't get distributed.
Following the advice in
http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Troubleshooting-+No+mail+going+out+to+lists+members
I checked that mailmanctl is indeed running. The following qrunner's
are reported by ps aux :
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=ArchRunner:0:1 -s
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=BounceRunner:0:1 -s
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=CommandRunner:0:1 -s
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=IncomingRunner:0:1 -s
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=NewsRunner:0:1 -s
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=OutgoingRunner:0:1 -s
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=VirginRunner:0:1 -s
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=RetryRunner:0:1 -s
Directory <mailman>/locks contains two files
master-qrunner
master-qrunner.glacon2.31638
where process 31638 is currently mailmanctl.
File mm_cfg.py contains SMTPHOST = "smtp.free.fr" which is correct
for me.
File <mailman>/data/aliases contains a stanza of 10 lines for the
"club" mailing list. File /etc/postfix/main.cf contains
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/aliases
Any hint for getting this hanging message out would be much
appreciated.
