i installed the latest version of mailman on Apache and use Sendmail as the
MTA, but when the automated process tries to run mailman it comes back with
an error.
From: root at galadriel.educara.net (Cron Daemon)
To: rday at galadriel.educara.net
Subject: Cron <rday at galadriel> /usr/bin/python -S
/var/mailman/cron/gate_news
X-Cron-Env: <SHELL=/bin/sh>
X-Cron-Env: <HOME=/home/rday>
X-Cron-Env: <PATH=/usr/bin:/bin>
X-Cron-Env: <LOGNAME=rday>
Traceback (most recent call last):

fp = open(self.__tmpfname, 'w')
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:
'/var/mailman/locks/gate_news.lock.gal
adriel.educara.net.18390.0'
i checked all the permissions and the owner of all the files has write
privilages. the owner of them is mailman, so i don't see how Permissions to
write are being denied. any advice?
