When I try to startup the Mailport FreeBSD port via its rc

First it seems some configuration step may have been missed.
<prefix>
should have been replaced with a path - probably /usr/local/
mailman/.
Hmmm...
How do I correct this?
I have no idea. What I said in my first response still applies.
This same port works on another FreeBSD machine of mine. I've posed
this question to the FreeBSD Questions list, but I seem to have
baffled some, which is why I thought I would post this question
here.
I hope this appropriate to post here.
You might compare the 'rc' file on this machine to the one on the
working machine. That might provide a clue.
This is the paragraph I was referring to above by "what I said ..."
We probably can't be much help either. The output you posted seems
'interleaved' and is not too intelligible without knowing what is
being run. In general, we are not able to help much with 3rd party
packages when the problem is with the package rather than the
underlying Mailman.
Just in case you'd like to take a stab at this, I'm enclosing the
full error message. I'd *really* appreciate your help if you are able
to help me, since I'd really like to get Mailman running again on
this computer somehow, and have reached the end of my rope...
The full output really isn't any more help than the excerpt, since we
still have no idea what's in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mailman.sh that's
producing all these errors. This script is part of your FreeBSD port.
It's not in our distribution. Also, we have no idea in what ways files
we do know about have been changed in your package.
One wild guess - look at bin/paths.py. It should contain real paths as
definitions for 'prefix' and 'exec_prefix'. If it's wrong, then so
probably are cron/paths.py and scripts/paths.py (and who knows what
else).
