[Mailman-Developers] Problems with mailman 2.1a2

[Rolando Guerra]

Hi,

I have installed mailman 2.1a2 in Solaris Intel 8 with Exim 3.31, Python 2.1 and mimelib 0.4.

I have two problems:

- My error log is growing all the time with the message:

---------------------------------------------------------------
Jul 31 20:17:51 2001 (23386) Uncaught runner exception: 'int' object has no attribute 'lower'
Jul 31 20:17:51 2001 (23386) Traceback (most recent call last):

    name = name.lower()
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'lower'
----------------------------------------------------------------

- I installed Mailman in /usr/local, but the private archives are linked to the /var partition:

private -> /var/mailman/private

if I create a new list for example "test", only the directory "test.mbox" is created but no the directory "test" and the list archives never are created. I have checked the rigths and they are OK, but only the directory xxxx.mbox is created. Before, I was working with the same scheme without problems, with Mailmna 2.0.5.

Please, somebody can help me?
Thanks in advance
Rolando
