Description tanstaafl@libertytrek.org 2008-01-08 16:20:19 UTC

Long story short, after I updated Mailman from 2.1.9-r1 to 2.1.9-r2, it broke mailman badly... I didn't think minor bumps like this were supposed to introduce major changes, but this one did...

I fixed the worst of it, but I still have the problem where the init scripts don't work, and mailman will not start at boot time - it gives the [ !! ] error.

Issuing the commands manually works, ie:

"/usr/lib64/mailman/bin/mailctl -s start" starts the qrunner and the lists work.

Maybe this is another path issue?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update mailman 2.1.9-r1 to 2.1.9-r2
2. Try to start mailman
3.

Actual Results:  
mailman refuses to start with an [[ !! ]] error.

Expected Results:  
mailman should start successfully.
