[Mailman-Users] problem running Mailman on 2.6.11.7
Hi all. I'm attempting to get Mailman running on a Slackware-10.0 machine with 2.6.11.7 and Grsecurity installed. After running check_perms_grsecurity.py and then running ./mailmanctl start, I received several errors such as this: Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/local/mailman/bin/qrunner, line 76, in ? import CheckFixUid File /usr/local/mailman/bin/CheckFixUid.py, line 6, in ? class CheckFixUid: File /usr/local/mailman/bin/CheckFixUid.py, line 12, in CheckFixUid if os.geteuid() != uid: NameError: name 'uid' is not defined I googled for checkfixuid, and the closest I came to a fix is http://www.mail-archive.com/cooker@linux-mandrake.com/msg126675.html Unfortunately, I can't test that patch since its been packaged within an RPM. Any other ideas on how to fix this are appreciated.
