I was having some problems getting majordomo working.
The short version is, email to any mailing lists I'd set up
resulted in infinite bounce loop, which grew very quickly
into a full bounce storm.
Looked at permissions and all, and config-test said all was ok,
but I'd made the Log be a directory instead of a file, and config-test
only checks for existance and writability, not for flatness.
The following change to the test script (config-test.pl) corrects this:
Change
if ( ! -e $log ) {
print "Logfile $log didn't exist, trying to create...\n ";
if (open(A, ">$log") && close(A) ) { # sesame
print "okay, now chmod'ing..\n";
chmod (0664, $log) || &bad( "chmod on $log failed, $!");
} else {
&bad("Couldn't create logfile $log, $!\n");
}
}
to:
if ( ! -e $log ) {
print "Logfile $log didn't exist, trying to create...\n ";
if (open(A, ">$log") && close(A) ) { # sesame
print "okay, now chmod'ing..\n";
chmod (0664, $log) || &bad( "chmod on $log failed, $!");
} else {
&bad("Couldn't create logfile $log, $!\n");
}
} else {
if ( -d $log ) {
&bad("Bad news, logfile $log is a directory, must be a file!\n");
}
}
I can create a normal 'diff' or context diff output if you'd rather...
