Ah ha. perhaps we are looking at an untested "ports" installation
testing problem. I'm not sure if qmailadmin/vpopmail have been
tested in your configuration. So I'm not surprised that you are
having problems.
I bet if you removed what you currently have, and install
everything from the source tar balls, it would work.
It would be good to record which version of everything
you currently have, os, qmail, vpopmail, qmailadmin, ezmlm,
and what installation method you used "ports" or "source".
>From there we can start to track down the problem and
look for a fix. Here is how I would start testing..
1) attempt to make a mailing list in qmailadmin, so you
can reproduce the error. If you want extra credit,
test each of the various options.
Since you have ezmlm-idx installed from ports, and
set qmailadmin to look at /usr/local/bin, then at
least qmailadmin was able to detect you have ezmlm-idx,
2) Try to collect the qmailadmin error message.
Extra credit is to search the source code, hint:
look mailinglist.c:
pid=fork();
if (pid==0) {
sprintf(TmpBuf1, "%s/ezmlm-make", EZMLMDIR);
sprintf(TmpBuf2, "%s/%s", RealDir, ActionUser);
sprintf(TmpBuf3, "%s/.qmail-%s", RealDir, ActionUser);
... then ...
execv(TmpBuf1, arguments);
before you execv, you can have it print out the entire arguments list.
You can use
fprintf(actout,"format string", values... );
Just loop through the arguments character pointers.
fprintf(actout, "%s %s %s ...\n", arguments[0], arguments[1],
arguments[2]);
or something like that.
3) Run the ezmlm-make command on the command line and see if you can
replicate
the error. Once you do that, you can look up the details of
ezmlm-make and
see if you can find the error. And hopefully find a fix.
4) If you are successful at that, then we can fix the source code.
The other option, is to start with the latest versions of the source
code
and test. The problem you are seeing might already be fixed in newer
versions.
If that is the case, then we can compile new versions and submit them
to the ports folks. Keep it updated :)
