Because Apache kills it before it can build the admindb summary page. >I have tried to move all the heldmsg- away for this list, but even then it >never comes back. Because that's not where the problem is. The problem is the number of held messages in the request.pck. >Anyone have an idea how to fix this? If you still have the held messages, put them back and remove them with Mailman's bin/discard per the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/nIA9>. If you don't have the held messages, just remove the lists/LISTNAME/request.pck file, but this will also lose any held (un)subscriptions waiting approval. >System is RedHat EL4 with 2.1.5.1-34.rhel4.3, which isn't the latest but still. Too bad. If it were Mailman 2.1.6 or later, you could just set the list's max_days_to_hold and cron/checkdbs would take care of it. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
