But the logs keep silent about the > reason.. Ok I figured out what happened.. First I tried to get more infos by running the runner manually once. And indeed, now I see that the runner "can't connect to SMTP": (venv) mailman@h2831057:~$ runner -C /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg -o -v --runner=out:0:1 May 20 12:17:24 2021 (20303) out runner started.

May 20 12:17:24 2021 (20303) out runner exiting. Which turns out is the completely wrong error message. SMTP works fine, it is the connection before (localhost:8000) that fails. After some more digging on that particular error I found a thread that linked this error with the use of templates. And indeed, if I add a footer template to my working list, it stops working. If I remove the footer from the broken list, it starts working. So there is something wrong with the templates. After some more digging I looked into the database how my footers were saved and indeed, if I did a wget on the url it timed out because it didn't work. I then dug a little bit more and found the setting "POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL" which apparently you also have to set. I didn't know because it was mentioned nowhere in the starting guide. So I set it to the url of my frontend and bang, it works (after fixing the urls in the database aswell). It would have been nice though to have a more refined error to figure this out. But its solved now and hopefully this will help someone else as well. -- Nathanael Schneider

The article is relevant and mentions the most likely issue which is lack of permission on one or more message templates. Everything in Mailman's var/ directory should be owned by Mailman's user:group - normally `list:list` in Debian packages. I'm only guessing here, but I suspect you ran `mailman import21` at some point as `root`. Never run `mailman` commands as `root`. Only run them as the Mailman user - `list` in Debian packages. Note that Mailman core in Debian Buster is 3.2.1. Since 3.3.5, "The mailman command will refuse to run as root unless the new --run-as-root option is specified." in order to help avoid this issue. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

This is your problem. By default, it should be port 25. Apparently there is no fallback for this in case it's left empty. (I would guess if you commented it out, it *would* fall back to port 25. > Apr 06 00:03:26 2020 (31153) ACCEPT: > <6a504834-123a-60f6-3a0e-494623b74523(a)mailbox.org> > Apr 06 00:03:26 2020 (31156) Uncaught runner exception: invalid literal for > int() with base 10: '' This is saying int() was called with the empty string as argument. > Apr 06 00:03:26 2020 (31156) Traceback (most recent call last): [intermediate frames omitted] > File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/mta/base.py", line 45, in > __init__ > config.mta.smtp_host, int(config.mta.smtp_port), The call to int() in the line above is getting the empty value from the config file. Changing smtp_port to '25' (or the appropriate value) in the config file will prevent the "Uncaught runner exception". If localhost's smptd is not listening on port 25, as the comment above seems to indicate, you either need to - find out the correct value if smptd is listening on a different port, - enable that daemon if it's not running, or - point smtp_host at a functioning outgoing mail server if localhost is not expected to be a mail server. In the latter two cases you also need to make sure smtp_port is correct for the server you use. There are some other, rarer and more complicated, possibilities, so if your answer is "none of the above", feel free to say so. But check those first, please.

Cannot connect to SMTP server

by mkummini＠cmi.ac.in

Hello. I am setting up a new mailman3 server (debian 11). `mailman3-full` is installed on the same server as postfix (our MTA). There is just one test mailing list now. When I send a message to it (I am a subscriber), mailman3 accepts the message through LMTP. Both the postfix log and mailman.log confirm this. Postfix log: Aug 14 03:21:25 mail postfix/lmtp[4097036]: 44E49272437D: to=<testlist(a)cmi.ac.in>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:8024, delay=0.15, delays=0.02/0.03/0.01/0.09, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 Ok) mailman.log: Aug 14 03:21:26 2022 (4096856) ACCEPT: <Yvgc3WsoFlpZbypw(a)cmi.ac.in> (The digest.mmdf file shows the test message I sent. Hence mailman3 has received the message from postfix.) However, after this, the postfix log does not show any attempt by mailman3 to send the message to the list members. The following runners have started (after the most recent mailman3 restart) Aug 14 03:19:53 2022 (4096853) archive runner started. Aug 14 03:19:53 2022 (4096863) retry runner started.

Aug 14 03:19:57 2022 (4096859) out runner started. However, I get the following line each time I do a restart Aug 14 03:19:57 2022 (4096859) Cannot connect to SMTP server localhost on port 587 I tried to specify the name of the postfix server, though it runs on the same machine as mailman3, and the different ports : 25, 465 and 587; they all raise the same error.

It can occur when Mailman's out runner can't read a template. You need to check ownership and permissions on mailman/templates in the code tree and Mailman's var/templates directory which probably has permissions errors from running inport21 as root. Also, if you've set any templates in Postorius, they may not be accessable if your setting for POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL is not good. > May 16 01:48:15 2024 (61252) error opening connection to nntp_host: localhost > [Errno 111] Connection refused > May 16 01:48:15 2024 (61252) NNTP error for list vereinsmitglieder(a)ludothek.de: > [Errno 111] Connection refused Are you gating messages to/from usenet for this list?
