[Bug 1760506] Re: mm_cfg.py syntax error is handled ungracefully
The issue in this specific case was scripts/driver only caught ImportError on a try: of importing mm_cfg and the exception here is SyntaxError. I have changed it to catch any exception and also indicate the traceback could be in the web server logs. ** Changed in: mailman Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: mailman Status: New => Fix Committed ** Changed in: mailman Milestone: None => 2.1.27 ** Changed in: mailman Assignee: (unassigned) => Mark Sapiro (msapiro) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1760506 Title: mm_cfg.py syntax error is handled ungracefully To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1760506/+subscriptions ___ Mailman-coders mailing list Mailman-coders@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-coders
