Today, my hourly cron job has generated an error and continues to do so every hour:
Subject: Cron <mailman@gw> /opt/mailman/mm/bin/django-admin runjobs hourly
Not sure what caused this. Perhaps a reboot when the cronjob hadn't completed? And a possible manual remedy would be to wipe the indexed db and let the cron run again?
