I upgraded from mailman2 to mailman3. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I read /usr/share/doc/mailman3/README.Debian, which said nothing about mariadb as a backend database. During the upgrade/install process, the scripts said nothing about mariadb, and instead said that sqlite3 was the default database and postgresql was the recommended database. I chose postgresql during the upgrade/install. * What was the outcome of this action? After fully installing mailman3 (and mailman3-web) and debugging the installs, the mailman3 systemd service did not automatically start after a reboot. This failure to start after a reboot happened on at least two independent reboots. * What outcome did you expect instead? I expected the mailman3 systemd service to start automatically after each reboot. * Analysis: The file /lib/systemd/system/mailman3.service includes the lines: 7 ConditionPathExists=/etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg 8 After=mariadb.service 9 Wants=mariadb.service 10 which appear to be the result of fixing bug #1030156: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1030156 Based on info systemd -> info systemd.directives -> info systemd.unit, these lines look OK, but similar lines for postgresql are needed. * Suggestion: Two possibilities to fix this in /lib/systemd/system/mailman3.service , as discussed with Christopher Bock on #debian irc, are: (1) change to After=mariadb.service postgresql.service Wants=mariadb.service postgresql.service or (2) change to After=mariadb.service After=postgresql.service Wants=mariadb.service After=postgresql.service Since sqlite3 does not use systemd, it cannot and does not need to be added to the systemd service file.
