that data/heldms* was only available on cluster 1.
From the moment that I shared this directory between cluster 1 and 2 the
approved messages were visible with the admin webinterface and approving
resulted in a transfer of the messages to cluster2:/var/spool/mailman/in
and are waiting there for the things to come.
So the problem is partly solved, albeit that the messages still are not
delivered, supposedly because cluster 1 should be able to transfer the
messages to cluster 3, the IMAP-server (?).
Why on earth are you adding in IMAP at this stage? Mailman is designed
to deliver via a pipe, to the scripts. I believe that's the case, even
with Postfix.
So I want to share the directory cluster2:/var/spool/mailman/in with
cluster 1 since this cluster is configured to send the messages to the
IMAP-server.
I suspect that that's a completely wrong approach.
Does this sound reasonable to you, or should cluster 2 itself better be
's/2/1/'
configured to send the approved messages to the IMAP-server directly?
's/to the IMAP-server//'

This excerpt from your log shows one interaction with the admindb interface.

The above is logged at the beginning of the interaction and says there
was no POST data which is expected.

Then these two say that there were two held messages, both held as
non-member posts to the groep3 list, and in this case, both posted from
the same address with subject 'test na patch',
The first was received at Fri Nov 5 13:01:31 2010 +0100 and held at Fri
Nov 5 13:01:32 2010 +0100. At the time it was held, the message itself
should have been saved in Mailman's data/ directory in a file named
'heldmsg-groep3-18.pck'.
Likewise, the second was received at Fri Nov 5 13:01:57 2010 +0100 and
held at Fri Nov 5 13:01:58 2010 +0100, and the time it was held, the
message itself should have been saved in Mailman's data/ directory in a
file named 'heldmsg-groep3-19.pck'.
The problem is that when the admindb interface CGI attempted to retrieve
these message files at Nov 05 13:20:14 2010, the OS said the two files
didn't exist. At that point, admindb.py logged the two messages and
discarded the post in order to clean up the list's request database.
This is what caused the vette log entries for these posts, but the real
issue is that the posts had already been lost or possibly (highly
unlikely) that the OS said the files didn't exist even though they did.
So, either the OS lied (unlikely), or the files were removed from
Mailman's data/ directory sometime in the 19 or so minutes between the
time they were created and the time the admindb.py script ran, or for
some reason they weren't successfully created in the first place. I
actually think this latter explanation is the most likely, except that
this should have resulted in an exception and error log entries at the
time the post was held, and this exception should have occurred before
the request database was written, so the end result would be that the
post was logged and shunted and not held at all.
So assuming the OS works this seems to say that either the files were
removed in that 19 minute window, or possibly there are two Mailman
installations, one used by mailmanctl and the qrunners and one used by
the web interface and these two installations both point to the same
lists/ directory, but different data/ directories so the the heldmsg-*
files are created by IncomingRunner in one directory and looked for by
admindb.py in a different directory. Again, this doesn't seem likely.
You could look for a data/heldmsg* file immediately after sending a post
from a non-member and before going to the admindb interface, or you
could strace IncomingRunner when it is processing a non-member post and
see if it writes the file.
You could also try patching Mailman/ListAdmin.py by finding these lines
try:
fp = open(os.path.join(mm_cfg.DATA_DIR, filename), 'w')
try:
if mm_cfg.HOLD_MESSAGES_AS_PICKLES:
cPickle.dump(msg, fp, 1)
else:
g = Generator(fp)
g.flatten(msg, 1)
fp.flush()
os.fsync(fp.fileno())
finally:
fp.close()

I don't think so. The message is removed at the
very moment that the link in Mailman's notification
message is activated.
I understand that, but the data/heldmsg* file could have been removed
external to Mailman before that.
Also, it wouldn't hurt to run Mailman's bin/check_perms to see if there
might be permission issues on Mailman's data/ directory.
See attachment. Mail restarted, just in case ...
I sent a message to the list. Unfortunately there was no message
waiting for me to be accepted and NO entry was in vette.
I think that it would be great if the logging became a bit
more verbose. Thanks in advance.

Try applying the patch and then the next time the problem occurs, post
the log - note the log may contain passwords; be careful to remove

Hi Mark, Thank you for your reply. Please post to the list, not to me personally. Point taken. And sure, you are Mark, not Larry, sorry ;-) However, the above messages, presumably from Mailman's vette log, come from two different PIDs. Thus, I'm guessing that you are approving these messages via the admindb web interface, and something is going wrong in that process resulting in the message being discarded by the admindb CGI itself. That is right, these are vette-log entries and the approving attempt is done via the admindb web interface. I found out that as soon as the list-administrator just selects the link in the requires approval message as sent by mailman, (Reason: Post by non-member to a members-only list) the message is discarded at that very moment! (vette log update detected) After that the following is displayed: |Action to take on all these held messages: |Defer Accept Reject Discard but *no* pending message is there to Accept. Have you modified admindb.py in any way? No! Does the web admin interface work? Except for the murdering of pending messages the interface works flawlessly.

Hi Larry,

BUT if messages are sent by senders as mentioned in [Sender Filters] /
List of non-member addresses whose postings should be automatically accepted
THEN messages are delivered (of course without the necessity of approval).
Since the vette-contents is rather concise, I editted
IncomingRunner.py'sErrors.DiscardMessage as follows, according
a earlier posting about this subject:
syslog('vette', 'Message discarded, msgid: %s, handler: %s',
msg.get('message-id', 'n/a'), handler)
but to no avail. Nothing changes in the output-format.
Because the message is not discarded by IncomingRunner. It is discarded
by the HandleRequest method in Mailman/ListAdmin.py called from
Mailman/Cgi/admindb.py.
Since all our lists suffer the same problem, a generic
configuration error may be assumed, but I've no idea
how to fix it. Any hint would be gratly appreciated.
Have you modified admindb.py in any way?
Does the web admin interface work?
What Mailman version is this?
How exactly are you approving messages?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Approved message is discarded
* Rosenbaum, Larry M. rosenbau...@ornl.gov: We are running Mailman v2.1.13 on Solaris 9 Sparc. We have a list with about 13,000 members that we currently have emergency moderation turned on because of previous problems with reply storms. Today somebody sent a message to the list, which (of course) was held for moderation. The list owner approved it, but then it disappeared. Here is what was in the vette log: Oct 04 10:35:12 2010 (21271) X_Cohorts post from michael.x...@.edu held, message-id=2034674bf9d4714bae35b22bf073eef402e70...@ms-..edu: Post to moderated list Oct 04 10:38:26 2010 (5774) held message approved, message-id: 2034674bf9d4714bae35b22bf073eef402e70...@ms-..edu Oct 04 10:38:28 2010 (21271) Message discarded, msgid: 2034674bf9d4714bae35b22bf073eef402e70...@ms-..edu The first and third line seem to match, but why is the size for the second line only a 5k instead of 20k?

(if the number in () is actually the size) The number in parens is thi PID of the process that made the log entry. In the first and third cases, this is IncomingRunner and in the second it is the admindb CGI.

Most likely, Content filtering - filter_action is Discard, and there was nothing left of the message after content filtering. E.g. the message was text/html or maybe multipart/related and the list doesn't accept that content type. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
