Whoops, sorry - copy pasta mistake on my part - here's the changelog for v11.5.1: 11.5.1 This is mostly a bug-fix release for issues found in the v11.5.0 release of Dada Mail. There a few small features to look out for: Features Cleaned up Discussion List Moderation Screen Dada Mail primarly moderates discussion list messages via an email interface: copies of messages that require moderation are sent to all the Moderators via an email notification. The moderators can then approve or deny a message from being sent. We've ...Continue Reading

Justin, Sorry for the delay in replying. No, the semaphore error message does not occur if the scheduled jobs are run from the admin page. As far as I could tell, no lock files were being written to .tmp when the Schedule::Cron jobs ran. Thanks for the assistance in identifying the warning in the code.I have modified the warning, retaining the part to the process ID number and the last part with the code line number. This shorter message is a useful 'heartbeat' signal, in these early days of my Dada Mail implementation. ...Continue Reading

Hmm - do you get the same error, (Semaphore does not exist to delete), if you run the Schedule Jobs URL, just in your browser? Does that file, (/home/very/long/path/user/private/.dada_files/.tmp/scheduledtasks.lock) actually exist? I guess if you want a bodge, you could just remove the line that throws that warning, Look for: warn "PID: $$ Semaphore does not exist to delete at, '" . $self->lockfile; in, dada/DADA/App/ScheduledTasks.pm and just remove it, Cheers, -- Justin J: Lead Dadaist.url: http://d ...Continue Reading

Justin, thank you for your reply and thank you for developing Dada Mail and making it available.The script for running Schedule::Cron is very simple and based on one of the examples supplied with Schedule::Cron. It's located in cgi-bin alongside dada and started with my SSH shell. So that it keeps going when I exit the shell, I use nohup with an ampersand to keep it in the background. So far, it's kept running. Dada Mail is run by Schedule::Cron using the precise curl command Dada Mail proposes via the admin pages.I was ...Continue Reading

Hello Developers, I have just joined the list. Over the past couple of weeks, I have installed Dada Mail on the shared host of the website of the astronomy society I am involved in, to provide a discussion list.This was not without challenges (ssh cli install only, no CPAN,additional Perl modules for SSL built locally and uploaded, etc) but it is almost ready now for society members' use.
