Mark, thanks for you explanation (now a week ago) and in particular your above-quoted diagnostic question. I realized that answering that was somewhat above my experience-with-servers level, so I involved cPanel into this question. See the thread: https://forums.cpanel.net/threads/read-only-file-system-error-accessing-mailman-admin.619067 <https://forums.cpanel.net/threads/read-only-file-system-error-accessing-mailman-admin.619067> Your hunch that Mailman is "perhaps running in a jail that is not allowing write access to /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives/public” seems spot on. cPanelMichael asked: > Can you verify if the "EXPERIMENTAL: Jail Apache Virtual Hosts using > mod_ruid2 and cPanel® jailshell" option is enabled under the "Security" tab > in "WHM >> Tweak Settings" on this system? If so, does temporarily disabling > this option solve the issue? Indeed, I did have that option enabled (for no good reason; it’s default is disabled). When I disabled it, the problem went away. Further, cPanelMichael said: > The option is known to have some compatibility issues with Mailman (internal > case CPANEL-9501 is open for this). There's currently no time frame on a > potential solution, so for now it's likely a better approach to keep it > disabled. So I’ve disabled this option, and I’m having no problems now in this regard. Thanks for your help!
