mailman start - can't open file
by Mark Dale Feb. 7, 2019

Feb. 7, 2019

Hi All, On a new installation (pip), when starting Mailman it seems it cannot find the "master" file. Have I missed a configuration somewhere that tells it to look in "/usr/local/bin" rather than "/usr/bin"? TIA, Mark root@sfo:/etc# mailman start Starting Mailman's master runner /usr/bin/python3: can't open file '/usr/bin/master': [Errno 2] No such file or directory root@sfo:/etc# ls -la /usr/local/bin total 1528 drwxrwsr-x 4 root staff 4096 Feb 7 05:22 . drwxrwsr-x 10 root staff 4096 Jan 23 23:12 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 215 Feb 7 04:03 aiosmtpd -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 216 Feb 7 04:03 alembic -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 266 Feb 7 04:24 django-admin -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 125 Feb 7 04:24 django-admin.py -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 218 Feb 7 04:03 falcon-bench -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 225 Feb 7 04:03 falcon-print-routes -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 221 Feb 7 04:03 mailman -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 216 Feb 7 04:03 mako-render -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 220 Feb 7 04:03 master -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 214 Feb 7 04:03 nosetests -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 214 Feb 7 04:03 nosetests-3.4 drwxr-sr-x 2 root staff 4096 Feb 7 04:24 __pycache__ -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 220 Feb 7 04:03 runner -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 1496712 Feb 7 04:52 uwsgi drwxr-xr-x 12 root staff 4096 Feb 7 05:22 var root@sfo:/etc# mailman info GNU Mailman 3.2.0 (La Villa Strangiato) Python 3.7.2+ (default, Feb 2 2019, 14:31:48) [GCC 8.2.0] config file: /etc/mailman.cfg db url: sqlite:////etc/var/data/mailman.db devmode: DISABLED REST root url: http://localhost:8001/3.1/ REST credentials: restadmin:restpass

Installation problem: Ubuntu 18.10 mailman3-full. EMAIL_HOST_USER
by worik Feb. 5, 2019

Feb. 5, 2019

Friends I am installing on a fresh ubuntu 18.10 using mailman3-full. Following http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/config-web.html after http://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/config-core.html and I have got to point where I am a bit stumped. I have to set EMAIL_HOST_USER and EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD I am unsure what I should use here. What sort of user? Worik -- If not me then who? If not now then when? If not here then where?

Using MySQL via unix socket
by Torge Riedel Feb. 2, 2019

Feb. 2, 2019

Hi, I'm trying to setup mailman3 on Linux and try to find out how the connection string must look like to let it accept unix sockets. A call to mysql -umailman -p successfully uses the socket on the machine and logs in. I tried mysql+pymysql://mailman:mailmanpass@127.0.0.1/mailman3?charset=utf8&use_unicode=1&unix_socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock as the connection string but it says that mysql server is not available. Which is the same if remove the "unix_socket" parameter. I have found this parameter when searching the net, but I'm not sure if it is supported. Thanks in advance and best regards Torge
