Hello everyone,
I'm trying to set up Majordomo 1.94.3 on a Linux machine (Red Hat Linux
release 4.1) -- not having succeeded in that task so far. Much of it
seems to work, though, like subscribing, and commands like info, lists,
etc.
However, I haven't succeeded in getting unsubscribe command to work yet,
and it seems it's failing because of some permission problems. As an
example, the error message to the admin of list 'foo' after an unsubscribe
command looks like this:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAJORDOMO ABORT (mj_majordomo)!!
chmod(33206, "/usr/local/majordomo-1.94.3/lists/foo.new"): Operation not
permitted
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now could you please tell me, what exactly does it try to do here, and
why? And how come it's "not permitted", as owners and groups of all the
files and directories are set to the user 'majordom' and group 'majordom'
just as it's told in the installation instructions (also the user
'majordom' belongs to the group 'majordom')?
I'm sorry if this is something too evident, but I'm still quite a newbie
in Linux, and definitely a newbie in administering mailing lists.
Nonetheless, I must get this to work, so every little piece of information
you could provide would be as much appreciated as also needed!! Many
thanks in advance!
