Change language to welcome message in mailman3
by Massimo Zappalà July 30, 2020

July 30, 2020

Hi everyone, My Version installed on Debian buster: mailman3: 3.2.1 postorius: 1.2.4 hyperkitty: 1.2.2 All interfaces work well in Italian language, but "Welcome message" is in English. I'm trying to change the language to the "Welcome message" with mailman shell, but it doesn't work sudo mailman shell -l test(a)pratico.work >>>m.preferred_language='it' >>>commit() >>>CTRL-D This is my file /etc/mailman3/mailman-web.py LANGUAGE_CODE = 'it-IT' TIME_ZONE = 'Europe/Rome' USE_I18N = False USE_L10N = True USE_TZ = True Would anyone know how to do it? Thank you Max

We are looking at whether it is possible to integrate Azure Single Sign On with Mailman3 to streamline use for our users, has anyone had any luck with doing this? If so, how did you go about doing so? Thanks

mailman2 import not working
by Abhijith PA July 29, 2020

July 29, 2020

Hello. Recently I migrated a mailman2 mailing list to mailmam3. There was one problem[1] I faced. Currently I am running Debian packaged version (3.2.2-1) which don't have this fix. But it was manually done with this[2] method. Basically this is what I did for migration: ------------------------------------------- mailman create -o <foo(a)example.com> foo-bar(a)lists.example.com mailman import 21 foo-bar(a)lists.example.com path/to/config.pck ------------------------------------------- Then imported archives with ------------------------------------------ python3 manage.py hyperkitty_import --pythonpath /usr/share/mailman3-web --settings settings -l foo-list(a)list.example.com <path to>/foo-list.mbox python3 manage.py update_index_one_list foo-list(a)example.com --pythonpath /usr/share/mailman3-web --settings settings ------------------------------------------ After everything done tried a test mail, but didn't reach any of the inbox though mail is archived. mailman.log says message is accepted ACCEPT: <FEE2E515-C054-41E6-9853-744D3312A137(a)xxxxxx.org> Nothing after this. On smtp.log we have Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) Peer: ('127.0.0.1', 54792) Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) ('127.0.0.1', 54792) handling connection Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) ('127.0.0.1', 54792) Data: b'LHLO lists.xxxxxxx.in' Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) ('127.0.0.1', 54792) Data: b'MAIL FROM:<abhijith(a)xxxxxxxxx.org>' Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) ('127.0.0.1', 54792) sender: abhijith(a)xxxxxxx.org Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) ('127.0.0.1', 54792) Data: b'RCPT TO:<temptest(a)lists.xxxxxxxxxx.in>' Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) ('127.0.0.1', 54792) recip: temptest(a)lists.xxxxxxxxxx.in Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) ('127.0.0.1', 54792) Data: b'DATA' Jul 29 16:11:52 2020 (16161) ('127.0.0.1', 54792) Data: b'QUIT' Please help.

Could not locate column in row for column 'user.id'
by Shashikanth Komandoor July 28, 2020

July 28, 2020

Hi Team, I am currently running Mailman 3 with version 3.3.1 and in built postfix version 2.10.1-6 on RHEL 7.5 in production environment from the past 2 months almost. From the past few days, I found my server is responding to the users very slowly and throwing the Server Error page (of course getting the required page after multiple refreshes) for almost every click on the postorius pages (not yet observed on hyperkitty front end which in fact is not so important for me as of now). During that time, I observed in the mailman.log an error message saying "Could not locate column in row for column 'user.id'". The complete traceback log is attached with the mail. The error message is generated for almost all the lists and all the clicks. And despite this error message, I don't know how the required page is loaded after a few refreshes of the webpage. I don't know how to resolve this issue. Please advise. Also, please let me know if anything I need to share with you. -- Thanks & Regards, Shashi Kanth.K 9052671936

Creating superuser - problem with documentation or it's just me?

# comment allowed in a template file?
by skenny＠scss.tcd.ie July 28, 2020

July 28, 2020

I've found that dropping files in to the templates directory is a simple and convenient way to make certain things happen. E.g. I can set a default footer for all posts by putting the desired content in a file called var/templates/site/en/list:member:generic:footer.txt. I'm running Mailman 3 in maxking's Docker container. I'm also using Puppet to do as much configuration as possible, so I'd like to add a comment to the file that reads something like: # This file is managed by Puppet. Is it ok to do this? I may not have searched the docs enough, but I couldn't find anything relating to comments. One other observation in case it's any use: Initially, I created the template files with owner set to "root". This resulted in postings to lists getting stuck in mailman-core. It's vital that these files are owned by user "mailman". Once I changed the owner of the file to the latter, everything worked. Stephen

July 28, 2020

Hi Team, Today, I found an error message like "Multiple rows were found for one_or_none()" when a hold message is approved for a list. Until yesterday the mails were accepted and delivered fine. But today the above said error message is thrown. Apart from that, I saw the mail had gone into the shunt queue. The "mailman qfile" output of the shunt message and the respective traceback log from mailman.log are attached. You may please go through them and help me out. Please also let me know if I have to share any more details. -- Thanks & Regards, Shashi Kanth.K 9052671936

mailman3 nightly script(s) are leaking memory + mitigation
by Mark Dadgar July 24, 2020

July 24, 2020

So as I mentioned in another thread, I have a shiny new install of mailman3 latest using venv (thanks, Brian!). It’s running on ubuntu 20.04 using python 3.8.2, django 2.2.12, nginx, postgres, and memcached. The only functions this server runs are 1) postfix and dovecot for a small number of personal email accounts, and 2) mailman3 for a couple of mailing lists (one of which is fairly high traffic). Not long after install, I saw a couple of instances of the OOM killer activating in the logs. I set up a 1GB swapfile (discouraged on Digital Ocean instances because they don’t like their flash drives to take that kind of pounding) as a safety net. Then I saw the free swap space eroding over time, so I started collecting some data. Initial evening stats: top - 23:29:16 up 15 days, 9:20, 1 user, load average: 0.07, 0.16, 0.17 Tasks: 200 total, 1 running, 199 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 2.0 us, 1.7 sy, 0.0 ni, 96.3 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.1 si, 0.0 st MiB Mem : 3936.2 total, 264.9 free, 1651.4 used, 2019.9 buff/cache MiB Swap: 1000.0 total, 811.2 free, 188.8 used. 1854.5 avail Mem Stats the next morning: top - 08:42:15 up 13 days, 18:33, 1 user, load average: 0.29, 0.27, 0.19 Tasks: 204 total, 1 running, 203 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 2.5 us, 1.4 sy, 0.0 ni, 96.0 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.1 si, 0.0 st MiB Mem : 3936.2 total, 214.7 free, 2244.8 used, 1476.7 buff/cache MiB Swap: 1000.0 total, 500.3 free, 499.7 used. 1318.8 avail Mem Stats the next evening: top - 23:26:00 up 14 days, 9:17, 1 user, load average: 0.10, 0.06, 0.08 Tasks: 209 total, 1 running, 208 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 2.6 us, 1.7 sy, 0.0 ni, 95.2 id, 0.3 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.3 si, 0.1 st MiB Mem : 3936.2 total, 206.0 free, 2253.6 used, 1476.6 buff/cache MiB Swap: 1000.0 total, 485.9 free, 514.1 used. 1305.5 avail Mem Stats the following morning: top - 08:09:32 up 14 days, 18:01, 1 user, load average: 0.01, 0.07, 0.14 Tasks: 194 total, 1 running, 193 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 2.0 us, 1.4 sy, 0.0 ni, 96.6 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.1 si, 0.0 st MiB Mem : 3936.2 total, 270.6 free, 1974.5 used, 1691.2 buff/cache MiB Swap: 1000.0 total, 266.5 free, 733.5 used. 1545.1 avail Mem As you can see, something during the night is eating memory and not letting it go. If I restart gunicorn, I get the memory back: sudo systemctl restart gunicorn top - 08:52:29 up 14 days, 18:44, 1 user, load average: 0.71, 0.49, 0.25 Tasks: 243 total, 1 running, 242 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 6.1 us, 3.0 sy, 0.0 ni, 90.9 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st MiB Mem : 3936.2 total, 936.3 free, 1277.1 used, 1722.9 buff/cache MiB Swap: 1000.0 total, 804.8 free, 195.2 used. 2242.5 avail Mem I did a little googling and a mitigation that seems to mostly work is to have gunicorn retire its workers periodically to free up memory. gunicorn.cf: max_requests = 1000 max_requests_jitter = 50 That restarts a worker after 1000 requests and adds some jitter so they don’t all get restarted at the same time. I am still seeing the erosion of a couple of MB of swap each day, but it’s WAY better than losing 250MB-350MB overnight. FYI for others who may see this. - Mark ----- mark(a)pdc-racing.net | 408-348-2878
