Mailman generating error messages every five minutes

[yobokkie]

Hi all,
I've searched on the forums and couldn't find another topic like this so I apologize in advance if it's a repeat but suddenly today i'm getting flooded with delivery failure notices from a mailman cron job.

This is the main body of the email I get:

The following text was generated during the delivery attempt:

------ pipe to |/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman
generated by ***redacted*** ------

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/mailman/scripts/post", line 32, in <module>
from Mailman import mm_cfg
File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py", line 76
DEFAULT_SERVER_LANGUAGE =
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I've looked in my root shell access and both files exist. I don't know what has changed since yesterday but I've tried disabling mailman in the tweak settings and still they keep coming. I'm getting a bit desperate here, and have searched google flat for an answer. Can anyone help me please?

Hello,

You may try the following:

Take a backup of the original file:

cp -a /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py.ori

Open the file with your favorite editor , such as nano:

nano /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py

... and set DEFAULT_SERVER_LANGUAGE = 'en'

And the final step is to restart mailman:

/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/bin/mailmanctl restart

Thanks for the prompt reply. I've done that and it's been ten minutes or so now and still no emails. So hold thumbs that was it. Many thanks.
