Bug in Mailman version 2.1.11.cp3

[SomeoneX]

Whenever I access http://www.domain.com/mailman/listinfo, I get this:

Bug in Mailman version 2.1.11.cp3

We're sorry, we hit a bug!

Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of traceback and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but the webmaster can find this information in the Mailman error logs.

I checked mailman's error logs, but it shows nothing.

Is there anyway to fix this? The thing is, this happens to all domains hosted in the server (across resellers as well).

cPanel/WHM Version: cPanel 11.24.4-S35075 - WHM 11.24.2

Thanks.

Is there already a solution for this problem?

I have the same problem. So it seems this is a bug/problem in cPanel.

Here someone says in Spanish that it is a permission problem?!? http://blog.pcastro.net/2009/03/30/m...-we-hit-a-bug/

Try the following scripts to resolve this issue (in the order below):

/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/check_db
/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/check_perms

If that does not resolve the issue, try:

/scripts/reinstallmailman --force

If all of that doesn't work, please let our technical analysts assist you: http://tickets.cPanel.net/submit

All those solutions doesn't seem to help.

chmod 02775 -R /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/

Seems to fix the problem.

Does any of theses solutions remove mailman configuration? Before trying them I must know if I lists will be deleted or their configuration restored to default.

Thank you very much! You're the best! It fixes it.

Thanks again!

/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/check_db
/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/check_perms
/scripts/reinstallmailman
chmod 02775 -R /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/

None of this worked for me; and I have been unable to find logs to check what is happening.

Any other hint?

[SomeoneX]

Have you tried updating cPanel?

[LluisForns]

My host told me they had done. I didn't checked.
I have finally found the log of the error:

chmod 02775 -R /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/

Seems to fix the problem.

That worked for me. Thanks!

[LluisForns]

At last I discovered that my problem was gone if I change the language from catalan to english; so I suppose this is a mailman bug affecting the interface translation.

[InstaCarma_Tech]

That worked for me. Thanks!

Great! Glad to hear that. This bug was reported in the previous mailman versions as well.

This issue seems to keep cropping up - it really needs fixed imho.

This resolves the issue:

chmod 02775 -R /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/

And as such I've set it on a 5 minute cron however cPanel should fix this, is there some sort of bug report we can see so that we will know when it will be resolved/has been resolved?
