Hi folks I'm trying to port my existing mailman setup to my new server. I've made note of the change of filesystem layout and followed the instructions for connecting to Exim4. I've configured Apache and the web interface to mailman's working fine. However, I've got two possibly related problems. 1) starting the new service fails as below: [root@stan1 ~]# service mailman start Starting mailman: Site list is missing: mailman [FAILED] [root@stan1 ~]# In /var/log/mailman/error it shows: [root@stan1 ~]# tail -f /var/log/mailman/error Dec 12 22:42:15 2005 mailmanctl(5556): Site list is missing: mailman Dec 12 22:42:15 2005 (5556) Site list is missing: mailman 2) sending emails doesn't work. I've configured exim4 as described (fixing the path problem to the config.pck). I've included the bits I've added as well as the extract from /var/log/exim/main.log that shows the incoming email being processed. There are no other log entries however, not in messages, main.log, or mailman/error.
