Re: Error message on upgrade

Can I just copy cron/crontab.in from the dist?

It depends where you put it. crontab.in in a user crontab so it needs
to go in /var/spool/cron/mailman. If that's where the existing crontab
is, that should be fine. If the existing crontab is somewhere like
/etc/cron.d/mailman, the easiest thing is to remove that one and
install crontab.in in /var/spool/cron/mailman. If you want to put it
in /etc/cron.d/mailman, you need to add the user name (mailman) in
between the times and the command on all command lines.

Also, I start
mailmanctl and it starts:

20919 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 ./mailmanctl start
20942 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 /var/mailman/bin/qrunner
--runner=ArchRunner:0:1 -s
20943 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 /var/mailman/bin/qrunner
--runner=BounceRunner:0:1 -s
20944 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 /var/mailman/bin/qrunner
--runner=CommandRunner:0:1 -s
20945 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 /var/mailman/bin/qrunner
--runner=IncomingRunner:0:1 -s
20946 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 /var/mailman/bin/qrunner
--runner=NewsRunner:0:1 -s
20948 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 /var/mailman/bin/qrunner
--runner=OutgoingRunner:0:1 -s
20951 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 /var/mailman/bin/qrunner
--runner=VirginRunner:0:1 -s
20952 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/python2.4 /var/mailman/bin/qrunner
--runner=RetryRunner:0:1 -s

Which is exactly correct.

Then I start getting these errors from the mailman:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/var/mailman/cron/qrunner", line 89, in ?
from Mailman.Handlers import HandlerAPI
File "/var/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/HandlerAPI.py", line 26, in ?
from Mailman.pythonlib.StringIO import StringIO
ImportError: No module named pythonlib.StringIO

And this error doesn't come from Mailman 2.1.12 at all. It comes from
the 2.0.x /var/mailman/cron/qrunner which is still being run by cron,
and which no longer works because of other changes.
