I'm trying to setup a simple mailing list using exim and mailman. Every minute when the cron runs I get this: Aug 31 15:21:03 2001 qrunner(16682): Traceback (innermost last): Aug 31 15:21:03 2001 qrunner(16682): File "/usr/lib/mailman/cron/qrunner", line 275, in ? Aug 31 15:21:03 2001 qrunner(16682): lock.lock(timeout=0.5) Aug 31 15:21:03 2001 qrunner(16682): File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", line 219, in lock Aug 31 15:21:03 2001 qrunner(16682): self.__write() Aug 31 15:21:03 2001 qrunner(16682): File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", line 350, in __write Aug 31 15:21:03 2001 qrunner(16682): fp = open(self.__tmpfname, 'w') Aug 31 15:21:03 2001 qrunner(16682): IOError : [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/mailman/locks/qrunner.lock.mystique.16682'
/usr/lib/mailman and /var/lib/mailman are both owned recursively by mailman (and in the mailman group). And the cron job was installed as mailman, so permissions shouldn't be an issue. I can create a new list, and get the mail as the list administrator, but subscribe and help requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] do nothing. They don't even generate a log entry. I have the latest exim and mailman from sid. Can somebody point me in the right direction? Thanks, Jason
