I am not sure the new mailing list creation is completely solved yet but on the first pass scrape the problem was that while the cronjob was running on the new mgt0 server the /etc/savane/savane.conf.pl config file was not configured to allow it to run. Therefore it would run, read the config, and exit immediately without doing anything. The process is one that I would classify as fragile and in need of improvement. The script runs every five minutes querying the database over the network connection to internal0. Then if there is something to be done it uses ssh to invoke a command on lists.gnu.org. I have configured the savane.conf.pl to allow it. The script does run. When I ran the script manually the first time it performed several queued mailing list operations. It also spewed forth a long stream of errors too. The root cause of those errors are not immediately obvious due to the layers that exist in the process. It needs some more love and attention and we will try to work that into the long queue of todo list items. Bob
