The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Omen Wild <address@concealed>]

We recently rolled Sympa 6.0.1 out to production here on campus and
have run into an issue where all bulk.pl processes die off.  I have
attached the logfile for the bulk processes around the time of the
problem.  The short story is that at 12:06:01 two extra bulk.pl exited
due to inactivity, some more messages got sent, then 50 minutes later:
Jun 22 12:53:27 penny-2 bulk[2813]: [ID 702911 local1.error] Could not open 
/var/sympa/bulk.pid, exiting
Jun 22 12:53:27 penny-2 bulk[2813]: [ID 702911 local1.error] Exiting.

We restarted Sympa at 13:22 and everything started working correctly
after that.

Jun 22 13:22:31 penny-2 bulk[7597]: [ID 702911 local1.info] Configuration 
file read, default log level 0

I see from the 6.0.3 changelog that there have been some bug fixes to
bulk.pl, but none seem to cover this issue.

All help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
   Omen
