In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Has anyone succesfully installed Mailman on FreeBSD? I pkg_add'd mailman and it installed Python as well (as well as a slightly later version of Apache which I probably didn't need). I'm able to run Python from the command line. However, when I try to do any Mailman functions I get an error. For example: adsl-63-198-218-205% /usr/home/mailman/bin/check_perms Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/home/mailman/bin/check_perms", line 46, in ? from Mailman import mm_cfg ImportError: No module named Mailman I've gone over the documentation, but it's lacking - especially for doing a simple pkg_add since I don't quite know the state of things. For example, I would have expected the 'mailman' user and 'mailman' group to have been created during the pkg_add, but it wasn't. Further, I see nothing in rc.d, assuming there needs to be some sort of Mailman script at that location. Anyone install it successfully, and if so, any tips? BTW, all that I'm trying to accomplish is to get mailing list software on my server and to have a web interface for users as well as for administration. If there is an equivalent piece of software for majordomo that you know of I'd just as gladly use that. thanks, rob To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
