FRISS�T�S KOR�BBI VERZI�KR�L
A legt�bb esetben a Mailman friss�t�se nem t�bb mint egy �jabb

What you need to do depends on the version you are using and the
version you are upgrading to. In all cases, you should first turn
off your mail and web access to your Mailman installation. You're
essentially upgrading a database, and it's usually a good idea to
make sure the database cannot be modified in the middle of the
upgrade.

Mailman will NOT upgrade the template files for existing lists.
Chuq Von Rospach gives some useful advice in this message to the
users mailing list:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2000-September/006826.html
[Actually, the upgrade to MM2.1a2 /will/ shuffle template files,
deleting any that it detects are unchanged from the original
defaults (calculated via md5 checksums).]
FRISS�T�S 2.0.x-R�L 2.1-RE
A 2.1-es Mailman
In Mailman 2.1, the qrunner subsystem has been completely
rewritten. You no longer start qrunner from cron! Instead, there
is a bin/mailmanctl script which is used to start, stop, and
restart mail delivery. This script is appropriate to use as a
Unix init script. Be sure to update your crontab with the new
cron/crontab.in file.
NOTE: It is very important that if you are upgrading from a
pre-MM2.1alpha2 system to a post-MM2.1alpha2 system that you let
the old qrunner process clear any and all messages sitting in the
qfiles/ directory *BEFORE* you upgrade. Otherwise after the
upgrade, those messages will not get delivered, and I'm not
exactly sure yet how to upgrade those pending messages.
NOTE: When upgrading to Mailman 2.1beta1, you will need to
regenerate your aliases files. There have been many changes to
the alias names, the programs they map to, and the name of the
wrapper script. See README.<yourMTA> for details of making
Mailman work with your mail server.
To regenerate your aliases, use the bin/genaliases script.
Mailman 2.1 introduces multilingual (a.k.a. internationalization
or i18n) support. Previously only one language per list was
supported, and it was assumed that this language would be English.
The upgrade script for Mailman 2.1 creates a subdirectory `en'
inside each lists/<listname> directory. It then copies all the
.txt and .html files from lists/<listname> into
lists/<listname>/en.
If you have modified those templates to contain non-English text,
you will have to manually rename the en subdirectories to the
language code for the language of your templates. Mailman's
upgrade script should handle cleaning up any templates which are
duplicates of the defaults, but you'll want to double check this
manually.
FRISS�T�S 2.0-R�L 2.0.1-RE
Semmi m�st nem kell csin�lni, mint futtatni a "make install"
parancsot.
UPGRADING FROM 2.0 beta to 2.0 final
You MUST re-run configure; running config.status is not sufficient
due to some recent changes in the autoconf scripts. You can do a
head of config.status if you don't remember the options you
originally ran configure with.
The cron jobs for Mailman 2.0 final have changed considerably,
including the frequency with which they run. You should reload
misc/crontab.in for the `mailman' user to get the right settings.
See the INSTALL file for details.
FAILURE TO DO THIS WILL RESULT IN A LESS THAN OPTIMALLY FUNCTIONAL
MAILMAN INSTALLATION.
UPGRADING FROM 1.x to 2.x
In addition to the instructions above, I highly recommend that you
make sure your Mailman queue is cleared /before/ upgrading.
Mailman version 1.x had a cron script called run_queue which was
part of its bulk mailer. With Mailman 2.x there is no default
bulk mailer (it lets the MTA handle this), and it is currently
unknown what the effects of upgrading are on the run_queue script,
but I'll bet it's not good. :)
The way to make sure that your Mailman queue is empty is to look
in your $prefix/data directory. If you see any files that start
with "mm_q." you've still got messages waiting on the queue. You
can run $prefix/cron/run_queue by hand until the queue is cleared.
Multiple invocations of this script won't help though; they lock
each other out. Also, be warned that clearing the queue can take
a while and may cause a large load on your system (two reasons why
all this stuff has been redesigned in 2.x :).
You do not need to run "make update" if you are upgrading from
version 1.0 or 1.1 to version 2.0, since this is now run
automatically when you do a "make install". However you should
modify your crontab entries to execute cron/qrunner instead of
cron/run_queue. You can also safely remove the file
$prefix/cron/run_queue.
If you are upgrading from a pre-1.0 beta, you need to follow the
instructions below.
UPGRADING FROM PRE-1.0 to 2.x
You need to do a few extra things to make sure that the file
system layout for the early 1.0 betas is upgraded to the 1.x
configuration. There are two ways to do this.
First, from the source directory, after you've done a "make
install" you can run "make update". "make update" creates a file
named "update.log" in the top level of the source distribution.
If the script that updates the Mailman filesystem encounters
something that is not resolvable, it will log info about this to
"update.log". This is worth checking after the upgrade completes.
You can also just change to the installation directory (i.e. $prefix)
and run bin/update. This is the same as above except that the
update.log file is not generated.
Check your crontab entry. Remove any runs of obsolete scripts, in
particular cron/upvolumes_yearly, cron/upvolumes_monthly, or
cron/archive.
WHAT "MAKE UPDATE" DOES
Below is an annotated listing of the things that "make update"
does. Hopefully, this will help resolve any problems you are
having.
Note that it can't hurt to run "make update" each time you
upgrade, but if you're running version 1.0 or newer, it won't help
much either!
- To upgrade to 1.0b10, you will need to copy
templates/options.html to lists/<listname>/options.html for each
mailing list you have. However, if you have edited the
options.html file, say from the Web interface, you will have to
merge these changes in manually.
- The upgrade to 1.0b7 included the removal of
Mailman/smtplib.py{,c} since Mailman now uses the default Python
1.5.2 version of smtplib.
- Archiving files are moved around as part of integrating
Pipermail into Mailman, as of 1.0b6. In particular,
1) if a list has only a private mbox archive
$prefix/archives/private/<listname> is moved to
$prefix/archives/private/<listname>.mbox/<listname>
2) if a list has only a public mbox archive
$prefix/archives/public/<listname> is moved to
$prefix/archives/private/<listname>.mbox/<listname>
and a symlink is made that points
$prefix/archives/public/<listname>.mbox to
$prefix/archives/private/<listname>.mbox/<listname>
3) if a list has both private and public mbox archives,
make update picks one of the above 2 configurations based on
whether or not the list currently is archived publicly. It then
renames the other mbox to mbox.preb6.
4) if a list used recent CVS sources, where archives were placed in
$prefix/public_html/archives, then these are moved to
$prefix/archives/private/<listname> and a symlink is made from
$prefix/archives/public/<listname> to that spot if the list's
archives are public. Also, a permissions-related security
problem is removed.
To integrate mbox archives of old lists, log in as user `mailman'
and run $prefix/bin/arch <listname> <path-to-mbox-archive>.
Also, by default, beta6 does both mbox and html based archiving,
but you can configure Mailman to do one, both, or neither.
Please see $prefix/Mailman/Defaults.py for details.
There was a short period of time when the CVS sources archiving
code was not organized into its own package. The pickled
articles in the archives that were placed into archives during
this period stored the path to the module HyperArch, but that
module has moved. You can quick fix this by running
ln -s $prefix/Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py \
$prefix/Mailman/HyperArch.py
- If upgrading from version 1.0b4 or earlier, "make update" moves
list-specific templates. For each list,
$prefix/templates/<listname>/* is moved to $prefix/lists/<listname>.
Please reference the generic templates in $prefix/templates to see
if any variables have changed (There shouldn't be many, only
options.html was updated from b5 to b6).
For really old versions of Mailman, you may not even have
<listname> subdirectories in $prefix/templates! In this case
you will need to manually copy some files into your new list
directories. Here's an example shell command that will do the
trick:
cp templates/{archives,handle_opts,listinfo,roster,subscribe}.html lists/<listname>
- Some modules that existed in previous versions, but that have
been replaced with newer (differently named) modules, are
removed.
