From the above output, I'd try two things:
- Is the database really running?
$ sudo -u postgres psql
- Can mailman connect to the database:
psql -h localhost -U mailman -d mailman -WWhat does those two commands give you?
I found that I did need to change the pg_hba.conf to get authentication to work.
When I no start Mailman, I get the following:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/mailman3/venv/bin/mailman", line 8, in <module> sys.exit(main()) ^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/click/core.py", line 1130, in __call__ return self.main(*args, **kwargs) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/click/core.py", line 1055, in main rv = self.invoke(ctx) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/mailman/bin/mailman.py", line 69, in invoke return super().invoke(ctx) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/click/core.py", line 1657, in invoke return _process_result(sub_ctx.command.invoke(sub_ctx)) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/click/core.py", line 1404, in invoke return ctx.invoke(self.callback, **ctx.params) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/click/core.py", line 760, in invoke return __callback(*args, **kwargs) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/click/decorators.py", line 26, in new_func return f(get_current_context(), *args, **kwargs) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/mailman/commands/cli_control.py", line 91, in start status, lock = master_state() ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/opt/mailman3/venv/lib64/python3.11/site-packages/mailman/bin/master.py", line 104, in master_state os.kill(pid, 0) PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted
But which operation are not permitted, how to find the cause?
That message is cryptic to me, but @Mark Sapiro <mark@msapiro.net> might know. Could you please see if there are stale lock files in /opt/mailman3/var/locks/ that could be preventing mailman3 from starting? If there are two files there, delete them and try starting mailman3 again. Beyond that possibility, I now remain clueless :)
