vague I can deal with, however...
After beating on this all day. I've discovered that the
directory that is specified in the majordomo.cf file as `homedir' has
to be world writable as the temp lock files are pointing at this
directory. . . once this is done, the error goes away, and function
seems normal. (I haevn't actually built a list as of yet.)
Please someone tell me I've screwed up something in the
configuration, because this seems *totally* wrong to me.
I traced this down by using a -w on the `#! /bin/perl' line in
the majordomo script. It seemed to be looping trying to write a lock
file in shlock.pl until it finally it seg faults.
Then turning on debug inside shlock.pl I was able to narrow
the fault down.
I at first thought that this might be due to a user id issue
where I had the same id on the test system, and the mailserver which
had differing id numbers. that was not the case as a 3rd test id built
yet another system exibited the same behavior.
A copy of mail sent to owner-majordomo is below prior to
chmod'ing the directory. I've also included the output of `majordomo
test' which seems fine.
Is this the way this is supposed to run? please don't say yes.
Ideas anyone? Even vague one's will do. :) (thanks, jeremy.)
