There are still a few of things to mop up, after an otherwise successful installation of Mailman on OS X El Capitan with Server 5.2.
Every 5 min my admin user account on the server gets an email from the Cron Daemon that has this line: IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/mailman/locks/gate_news.lock.ipheion.hoffmann.homeunix.net.54220.0' Here are my observations: 1. I currently have no file at /usr/local/mailman/locks/ whose name starts with "gate_news". 2. My root Crontab has these lines: # Every 5 mins, try to gate news to mail. You can comment this one out # if you don't want to allow gating, or don't have any going on right now, # or want to exclusively use a callback strategy instead of polling. # 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/bin/python -S /usr/local/mailman/cron/gate_news In other words, the gate_news cron job is commented out. 3. I have run /usr/local/mailman/bin/check_perms -f, but that has had no impact. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
