Was this a new list or one that was present during a prior successful cron/senddigests run? Could you access the list via the web UI? What user runs the cron, i.e. the owner of the crontab or the listed user is a system crontab, and can that user access the config.pck file? Can that user successfully run cron/senddigests manually? If the above doesn't give clues, maybe apparmor is involved. Maybe it was a transient glitch. In any case, I wouldn't expect re-installing Mailman to correct a permissions problem if check_perms didn't find anything. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
