Hello,

This is Plesk 10, I upgraded it from Plesk 9. If I try to create a new e-mail list I get this error:
Unable to create list: listmng failed: listmng: Error: cannot create new list: is Mailman configured properly?. System error 2: No such file or directory

I already tried this with no luck!

 

[IgorG]

Did you try to reinstall mailman package?

 

[JorgeM1]

Hi Igor, yes I did, and I installed it again throught the CP.

Tried that with no luck!

 

[IgorG]

Try to remove mailman package via CLI and install it back with rpm utility but not via CP.

I found this at mailman error log:

Nothing more than that.

 

[IgorG]

No. It should be something like that:

# rpm -e mailman psa-mailman-configurator

then

# /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/autoinstaller

Addition mail services -> Mailman mailing list manager support

Did that, but same error...

 

[IgorG]

It looks like there is database inconsistency. If you can't correct it by yourself - contact support team.

 

[JorgeM1]

I tried to contact Parallels, but because I bought the license with 1&1 I have to request support with them. The problem is that they don't reply to the ticket I have with them.

 

[lhwparis]

So have a phone call with 1&1? you can pay for parallels support at their website then they ll help you even if you have bought your plesk from 1&1

 

[GregoryV]

It may be related to inconsistancy of password and password policy.

You may either try to set more complex password while creating maillist or try to decrease Minimal password Strength at Home -> Settings -> Mail Server Settings to Very Weak.

Hope it will help =)
