I never noticed before, but the db and index files were owned by root,
due to root creating the archive from an mbox in the first place.
Re-owning them to the mhonarc user fixes all!
Since you are redirecting the output to /tmp/out_external_archiver,
did any errors show up related to permissions?
Actually, looking at the command:
/usr/bin/mhonarc -add -outdir
/var/mhonarc/archives/%(listname)s -rcfile main.rc >>
/tmp/out_external_archiver
Where does stderr go? The '>>' will only catch stdout. You may
want to add '2>&1' at the end of the command so stderr is captured
with stdout.
BTW, if your lists have significant traffic or will get large
over time, I recommend separating the archiving from Mailman so it
can be managed separately. Maybe use a approach advocated by
mharc, <http://www.mhonarc.org/mharc/>.
