When my cron script hits the processSpool URL, I can see it trying to work as I
see the following in my /var/log/maillog:

However, no e-mails are processed or sent out.
GroupServer is receiving the e-mails as the topics are being created on the Web
UI. I also know GroupServer can send e-mail as it sends the welcome e-mails
without issue.
Any ideas what could be causing this? I see nothing of relevance in the
instance.log or instance-Z2.log. Anywhere else I could look?
SOLVED - it was the XVERP issue discussed before, since I wasn't running
postfix on localhost, I needed to add the interface IP to the verp list in
main.cf.
I am glad to read you managed to get email to and from GroupServer,
Patrick.
Thanks Michael. It certainly was an interesting experience getting it setup on
CentOS 6.1. Any plans to expand the installation guide to include more
distribution-specific instructions?
I agree that it would be great to have instructions that contain
specifics about what is required for each distribution, such as CentOS,
Debian, RHEL, and SUSE. I hope to accumulate more specific instructions
over time, as different people try out GroupServer.
Well why don't we start with the required packages for CentOS / RHEL 6.1?
I'll setup another VM in a few days and go through the process again,
documenting it better that time and share here. But for now, the requirements
install in CentOS 6.1 yum packages are:
python-devel
python-setuptools
make
gcc-c++
postgresql
postgresql-server
postgresql-libs
postgresql-devel
postfix
libzip
libzip-devel
zlib
zlib-devel
You'll notice that python-virtualenv isn't listed as it is for Ubuntu. That's
because the virtualenv package is only available as a YUM install from
3rd-party repositories and I don't like going any further than the CentOS Plus
repo for production servers. So in order to get virtualenv, you'll then need
to execute:
# easy_install virtualenv
I'll post more CentOS-related directions once I've gone through the install
process successfully again.
Note that this is for CentOS 6.1, which was just released on Dec 9th, as it was
a brand new box so ... why not, right? I haven't tested CentOS 6.0, but I do
know there were some issues related to the easy_install installer and the
specific version of Python that shipped with CentOS 6.0, so I wouldn't
guarantee success on anything under 6.1 (in the 6.x family).
Hi, Patrick,
I greatly appreciate the list of CentOS packages. I have updated the
installation documentation to include your list, and a note about
Virtualenv <http://groupserver.org/downloads/install>.
I was reviewing the install a bit this morning and realized I had forgotten the
following packages from the list I posted yesterday:
