mm_cfg.PIDFILE is the setting of PIDFILE in Mailman/Defaults.py or as overriden in Mailman/mm_cfg.py. The Default setting from Mailman/Defaults.py is PIDFILE = os.path.join(DATA_DIR, 'master-qrunner.pid') and DATA_DIR is DATA_DIR = os.path.join(VAR_PREFIX, 'data') and VAR_PREFIX is set by configure, and is also defined in Defaults.py and in your case is VAR_PREFIX = '/var/lib/mailman/' > When you run it from the command line, it works without complaining. > > I think there is a problem with the permissions being created for the pid > file. The permissions look OK.
