Jerome, It is a rather long involved script, but here is the piece that is failing. I am trying to integrate with mailman and create a new list by using the following script: nlcommand = "/home/mailman/bin/newlist -q test test@test.org test" if(os.system(nlCommand)) : retval = "newlist command failed." return retval When I run this script fragment from the shell logged in as user "zope", the newlist command succeeds. However, when I run it from the Test tab as mentioned, it fails. If I comment out these few lines, the rest of the script runs as expected.

I have an external script that runs fine when I invoke it from the shell as user "zope". However, when I try and run this script from the "Test" tab within the ZMI, it fails. Can anyone point me in the direction of a solution for this?
could you show us the script so we could look at it and maybe be able to answer ?
