Fwd: Re: [Mailman-Users] Problems with upgrading

[Aaryn Olsson]

David,

Thanks for your input.  From your message it is hard to tell what you
mean about the /etc/aliases.  This is what the /etc/aliases look like:

## theclubs mailing list
theclub: "|/usr/local/mail/mailman/mail/wrapper post theclub"
theclub-admin: "|/usr/local/mail/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner theclub"
theclub-request: "|/usr/local/mail/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd theclub"
theclub-owner: theclub-admin
owner-theclub: theclub-admin

/usr/local/mail/mailman/mail/wrapper is the full path of wrapper and when
I run it from the command line, I get an exit code of 5 which I think is
from common.c: #define MAIL_USAGE_ERROR 5.  On that note, an exit code of
2 corresponds to #definte GID_MISMATCH 2.  Group ID mismatch?  But all
files in the /usr/local/mail/mailman directory subtree belong to the
mailman group.  Also, does the owner of the files matter?  Who should own
wrapper?  I've tried me, root, and mailman, all to no avail.

mailman is a Trusted user as far as sendmail is concerned, and sendmail.cf
has a line called "O DontBlameSendmail=IncludeFileInGroupWritableDirPath",
but I don't think that's a problem considering the exit code sounds like
it comes from wrapper itself.

Very confused.  Please help. 

Sincerly,
Aaryn Olsson
