Re: Majordomo Trouble



what user/group is uid 30/group 31 ? majordomo usually pukes when trying
to write to /var/log/majordomo so check permissions on that thats the only
directory where i have recieved a similar error with (although it was kind
enough to tell me the exact directory)

while your at it check the permissions of the wrapper script, if your
concerned with security make sure it is chmod o-x, then adjust permissions
accordingly so majordomo will work.(slight majordomo security issue, which
by the maintainers is infact intentional so not likly it will get "fixed")
