Re: Hyperkitty messages stuck in spool

by Ruth Ivimey-Cook

There may be some benefit in exploring these notes on configuring the linux memory managers: https://gist.github.com/JPvRiel/bcc5b20aac0c9cce6eefa6b88c125e03 My thought in suggesting this is that if you can put some back pressure on the processes running, to indicate that memory is indeed at a premium, you may be able to extract more from the hardware you have. For example, use 'ulimit' to prevent specific processes seeing all the memory they would otherwise see. In any case, to address the last point Mark makes, I would suggest adding quite limited amount of swap - perhaps 200-300MB, rather than 1-2GB, for the same reason. You give the kernel somewhere to put things at need without giving it the scope to go crazy! Finally, I would suggest going through the installation and remove everything you can manage that's not critical to running the mailing list. For example, mysql often runs many threads with lots of buffers, and on my MM install its virtual memory size (number of bytes it theoretically could use) is just under 3GB. It's 'resident' size (the amount it's actually using now) is however just 139MB, with another 2.3GB shared (with other processes on the system -- think c-lib, tls etc). Tuning mysql to a smaller memory footprint would probably result in several hundred MB lower use. Similarly, the same VM is running 'snapd', which claims a virtual size of 1.2GB and a resident size of 32K; perhaps it's not necessary to run snapd permanently or even have it installed? It's also using 'lxcfs' the linux containers framework, which while using very little resident is still claiming 290MB virtual space. My point is that all these virtual allocations add up, and while the kernel will overcommit (to account for memory requested but never used) and it tries hard, it cannot know which things to prioritise. Making some of the choices for it can only help. -- FWIW, my mail server VM is set up with 4 virtual CPUs, 5GB RAM (of which about 1.7G is actively used and the rest is file block buffer, some of which will be for shared code files) and 4GB swap (of which it's using 260K). It's running a fairly default setup of mariadb, dovecot, mailman3, exim4, fail2ban, and spamassassin, and is quite stable. NB I don't run postorius or django on this server... they're elsewhere. I do recall adding more RAM a while back, having initially allocated 2GB, and at the same time adding the swap space; it looks from these numbers the swap isn't needed and I could if I wanted have just given it 3GB rather than 5GB RAM (but the server has 64GB and I'm not bothered!).

Mailman web Stopped working after upgrade

by David Krantz

Hi. I have a VERY strange behaviour. I upgraded mailman3 and mailman web this weekend. It works fine (apart from ARC which don't work correctly in my setup but that is ok). But tonight the web user interface stopped working and I have not been logged in since it worked last time so something very strange is going on. I get the dreadful error message about psycopg2._psycopg is missing although it is installed both in ubuntu and in pip in the venv I run mailman. Mailman core still works fine, it is just Django being flaky. I think that this might be due to some kind of python misfeature where compiled code behaves slightly differently to interpreted code, that might explain the delay in it working initially before breaking. I have no idea of how to solve this. I have tried to uninstall and reinstlall psycopg2 in different versions without any luck. Any ideas? Logs below. I get the following in the web server error log (removing the web things that frankly are not interesting): mod_wsgi (pid=4488): Target WSGI script 'MAILMANROOT/bin/mailman-web20200229.wsgi' cannot be loaded as Python module. mod_wsgi (pid=4488): Exception occurred processing WSGI script 'MAILMANROOT/bin/mailman-web20200229.wsgi'.

There is only one difference between the `Discussion` and `Announce` list styles, and that is for an `Announce` list, the `allow_list_posts` attribute is set to `False`. In turn, all that does is cause the List-Post: header to be set to NO rather than the list posting address. There is a discussion at <https://wiki.list.org/x/4030685> of how to set up an announce list for Mailman 2.1. Most of this translates straightforwardly to Mailman 3, although not all the relevant settings are exposed in Postorius. In short, you need to set this up manually using things like moderation settings and custom templates for the welcome message. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

It's a bit hard to say, my brain got mushy after a few hours of staring at bash. What was happening was the install was never completing, there was always an error blocking it. One of the main ones I found was pymysql for python2 wasn't installed. Once I installed that, it started to be happy. I also had to run dpkg-reconfigure for mailman3-web and after that I had a working web service. As far as Hyper Kitty, the web service is up (the webpage runs, at least). And I did check systemctl status mailman3, it was inactive. So I did systemctl start mailman3 and it is now running. However, the same error still shows up on postorius. >>Something went wrong >Mailman REST API not available. Please start Mailman core.

I will check with "mailman create" and the --domain argument. Part of adding a new list is specifying the domain. If it's one of the existing domains, i.e., ml.franceserv.fr, or ml.viticreation.fr, that's all that needs to be done. e.g. `mailman create newlist(a)ml.franceserv.fr`. If it's a new domain, you need to add the domain to the django_site table perhaps directly or via the django admin UI and then after `mailman create newlist(a)new.domain` you may need to edit the domain via Postorius' domains view to specify the correct Web Host. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
