The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Teresa Beamer <address@concealed>]

I have selinux set to permissive mode, but I went ahead and ran the selinux commands to allow the file to be read.  

It still does not sync the subscriber list.

sympa.pl --health_check

doesn't come back with anything.

sympa.pl --sync_include=address@concealed

Didn't work either.

I can manually add the data (sympa.pl --import), but am concerned that other lists are not syncing as well. Are there known circumstances that can prevent the sync?

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

just an idea, without looking into details: it may be due to selinux restrictions, if you use selinux (… works well with sympa, after a few minor adaptations)

you could find out:

(if you use selinux:)

if you have installed setroubleshoot* (sudo yum install setroubleshoot*), you can use:

sudo sealert -a /var/log/audit/audit.log

to find out, if selinux is interfering. The command also outputs info how to solve the problems, if there is any. 

Best,

Michael

we have Sympa 6.2.13 on a Centos 7.4 system and I have several lists that load subscribers by a file that is downloaded to the server.  In the field 

File inclusion (include_file) 

I put a directory and file specification:

/home/opuslists/PAR_EMAIL.TXT

But it never seems to get loaded into the list.  Currently the file's permissions is:

-rw-r--r--. 1 opuslists root       341658 Sep 24 03:20 PAR_EMAIL.TXT

I've tried with an owner of opuslists:opuslists, but it still didn't load. 

The log shows:

Sep 24 13:24:49 listserv task_manager[3511]: notice main::execute() Running task /var/spool/sympa/task/address@concealed, line 0 with vars )

Sep 24 13:24:49 listserv task_manager[3511]: info Sympa::List::_include_users_file() 4148 included users from file /home/opuslists/PAR_EMAIL.TXT

Sep 24 13:24:49 listserv task_manager[3511]: info Sympa::List::_include_users_list() 80 included users from list Sympa::List <address@concealed>

Sep 24 13:24:50 listserv task_manager[3511]: notice Sympa::List::sync_include(Sympa::List <address@concealed>) 0 users updated

So it sees the data, but never loads it into the list.

I removed all the original subscribers in this list, and now am trying to get new members subscribed.

What should I look for to troubleshoot this?
