The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[address@concealed]

Hello,

I followed the installation guidelines on the website and now having trouble 
getting Sympa to run.  First of all, the "--chuid" option isn't being 
recognized at Sympa startup.  If I remove this option, it seems to start OK.  
The boilerplate /etc/init.d/sympa at 
http://www.open-organizations.org/twiki/pub/Socialtools/StandardSympa/sympa 
specifies this option, which Sympa itself refuses.  So right now I'm starting 
it as root without --chuid option.  Another complication is that I do not 
want to create a virtual host, rather run Sympa interface as the main Apache 
instance.  Right now Apache is configured to invoke wwsympa.fcgi from 
http://<hostname>/wws

When Sympa starts up, I immediately start seeing the following in 
/var/log/httpd/error_log:

[Fri Jul 30 14:02:56 2004] [warn] FastCGI: server 
"/home/sympa/bin/wwsympa.fcgi" started (pid 30483)
Can't do setuid
[Fri Jul 30 14:02:56 2004] [warn] FastCGI: server 
"/home/sympa/bin/wwsympa.fcgi" (pid 30483) terminated by calling exit with 
status '255'
Can't do setuid

"/home/sympa/bin/wwsympa.fcgi" (pid 30486) terminated by calling exit with 
status '255'

When I access http://<hostname>/wws, I get this from Apache errorlog:

[Fri Jul 30 14:03:20 2004] [notice] child pid 30478 exit signal Segmentation 
fault (11)

/var/log/sympa says this:

Jul 30 14:03:06 linuxclient task_manager[30421]: purge_orphan_bounces()
Jul 30 14:03:06 linuxclient task_manager[30421]: error while loading list of 
listes with function get_lists
Jul 30 14:03:06 linuxclient task_manager[30421]: Error while processing task, 
removing /home/sympa/spool/task/1091210526..purge_orphan_bounces._global

Another thing to note is that I don't get any error messages from Sympa on 
startup, only when I attempt to access the URL.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
