Public bug reported:
When running "/etc/init.d/mailman start, I get:
# /etc/init.d/mailman stop
* Stopping Mailman master qrunner mailmanctl [ OK ]
root@chlorine:~# /etc/init.d/mailman start
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/var/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists", line 122, in <module>
main()
File "/var/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists", line 114, in main
print mlist.internal_name()
IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe
* Starting Mailman master qrunner mailmanctl [ OK ]
Ultimately the error is harmless since the mailman services start, but
the problem comes down to:
# /var/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists -b | grep -q "^mailman$"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/var/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists", line 122, in <module>
main()
File "/var/lib/mailman/bin/list_lists", line 114, in main
print mlist.internal_name()
IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe
This is on a system with over 600 lists. grep -q appears to close the
pipe as soon as it's found a match. On an install with only a few
lists, the entire output is within a single buffer page, so this does
not occur. But in this case, there is enough output to have other pages
available when grep closes the pipe.
