Hi, I set up mailman 2.0.12 on RH7.3 running sendmail.(sendmail running as root, apache as nobody,mailman running as mailman)
i created a list, allowed FollowSymLinks in pipermail alias in apache, added the appropriate aliases in the /etc/aliases file, and added a symlink /etc/smrsh/wrapper -> /home/mailman/mail/wrapper When i try to subscribe a test user to the list I get a subscribe notice, I reply, then I get an email with this error. ###----------------- The original message was received at Mon, 12 Aug 2002 12:29:20 -0700 from imo-r07.mx.aol.com [152.163.225.103] ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd testlist" (reason: 2) (expanded from: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- Failure to exec script.
