Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Error installing mailing-lists

Posted by Ben Chan on
Well I have acs-mail-lite 0.3.  However I'm running OpenACS 5.0 and if I go to install acs-mail-lite from admin, only acs-mail-lite 0.1 is available.

Then get acs-mail-lite out of the contrib section and replace your current installed version 0.1. For OpenACS 5.0, mailing-list depends on the acs-mail-lite package in contrib.

In general I'd suggest to move to 5.1 if you have the chance.

Well I've got the binding with acs-mail-lite worked out, but I've been getting a categories error now after trying to create a new mailing list. Categories is version 0.1d from acs-admin/install:
