    Default Cron Mailman digest errors

    After I moved accounts to a new server I started to receive the following errors:

    Email subject: Cron <mailman@tux> /usr/bin/python2.4 -S /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/cron/senddigests

    Email body:
    List: xxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxx: problem processing /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/lists/xxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxxdigest.mbox:
    [Errno 20] Not a directory: '/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives/private/xxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxx/attachments'
    List: xxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxx: problem processing /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/lists/xxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxx/digest.mbox:

    I verified that the only directories under /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives/private/ are mailman/ and maiman.mbox/

    I can help with the cause of it. In the example given, the needed directories are not there. As Guile said:
    "I verified that the only directories under /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives/private/ are mailman/ and maiman.mbox/ "

    There should be directories with the other list(s) names also. That is why the "[Errno 20] Not a directory:" error is there, because the directory is not there.

    Hope this helps all three of you,
    Ron

    As of a few days ago I also receive this via email along with the initial one.

    Code:
    List xxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxx has a bogus archive_directory: /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives/private/xxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxxx

    "has a bogus archive_directory"

    If you look in the server, the account transfer isn't moving the archives but instead creates a file with that name set to 755 in place of them. In recent moves, I had to copy all the archives over manually using SCP and set correct permissions to fix it.

    The problem is that the old server is gone. So I can't copy anyhting over manually. Any idea on how I can fix this without having access to the old server.

    Also, I think obvious from the exchange here that this is a cPanel account transfer/copy bug/issue that needs to be reported and addressed by by the staff. Has anyone reported this yet?

    I'm having the same problem with one of my accounts that has e-mail lists.

    Edit - this is how I fixed it:

    Remove the previous private directory:
    rm -r -f /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives/private

    Copy archive from old server:
    scp -r PREVIOUS_SERVER_IP:/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives/private /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/archives

    This is is my problem as well. The old server is gone and cPanel to cPanle transfer script seems to have failed to copy everything in this case.
