Description Benjamin Cabé CLA 2011-12-22 05:35:16 EST 
If I go to e.g. https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/m2m-iwg

I get the following page:

<<
Bug in Mailman version 2.1.14

We're sorry, we hit a bug!

Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of traceback and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but the webmaster can find this information in the Mailman error logs.

I'm filing this as CRITICAL since it seems to occur for all the mailing lists, and prevents to browse ML archives and to subscribe.

This seems to be caused by logrotate.  At this time I've been unable to
determine why logrotate seems incapable of correctly setting the log file
permissions.

I've tried force running logrotate from the command line and it correctly sets
the ownership and permissions.

I've added a cronjob to try and better replicate it's 'normal' behavior, to see
if that produces anything.

I'm still unable to explain why logrotate isn't setting the file modes correctly.  I've crafted a script to fix things after logrotate has run, which is the only solution I can find.
