Good Morning,
I am in the process of setting up a replacement mailman server and so far things are going well. I did have 2.1.22 and upgraded to 2.1.23. The point where I am stuck is when I try to post to the mailman list I receive the following error below. When I setup mailman I used the following command:
./configure --with-mail-gid=mailman --with-cgi-gid=apache
Upon seeing the error below I reran the configure command with the 'nobody' and reran the make, make install but that broke the web interface. I have searched online but cannot find a solution.
<mailman at box.washlaw.edu>: Command died with status 2:
"/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman". Command output: Group
mismatch error. Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be executed as
group "mailman", but the system's mail server executed the mail script as
group "nobody". Try tweaking the mail server to run the script as group
"mailman", or re-run configure, providing the command line option
`--with-mail-gid=nobody'.
