The link to a list on the page generated by
prefix/Mailman/Cgi/listinfo.py is determined by each list's web_page_url
attribute. The value of this attribute is normally set when the list is
created and is based to DEFAULT_URL or DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN combined with
DEFAULT_URL_HOST or DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN values at that time. Another list
attribute set at the same time is it's host_name attribute which is set
to DEFAULT_HOST_NAME (or DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST if DEFAULT_HOST_NAME is not
defined). This is used in setting the link to the archives on the page
returned by the /listinfo/<list> URI.
Every other link works so far. Only the archive link is wrong.
I just set DEFAULT_URL and DEFAULT_HOST_NAME in
$prefix/Mailman/Defaults.py. DEFAULT_HOST_NAME has the same value as
DEFAULT_URL_HOST. DEFAULT_URL has the value of DEFAULT_HOST_NAME with
https:// in front of it (can I use %s there instead, like
DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN?). That didn't help.
If you want to change these list attributes for a given list then
prefix/bin/withlist is your friend. The standard MM 2.1 distribution
I want to have the defaults set such that I don't have to run
withlist/fix_url every time I create a list. I have one host that the
lists are serverd off of, and I want all the links to be https instead of
http. (Everything in the MailMan web interface should be viewed from
https://myserver.unboundtech.com/...)
has the $prefix/bin/fix_url.py script wto be used in conjunction with
prefix/bin/withlist to reset a list's web_page_url and host_name. The
values to which web_page_url and host_name are set by fix_url.py depend
on the then current default MM parameters set in
$prefix/Mailman/Defaults.py and $prefix/Mailman/mm_cfg.py and the options
you put on the command line when running fix_url. See the code
Given that setting those two didn't fix my existing test list, I tried
creating a second test list. I still have the same problem. Every link
except the Archive link works.
Should I interpret this as a bug, or am I still doing something wrong. I
don't think I should have to manually patch every list I create just
because I'm using an https server for the web interface.
Looks like the URL is generated by the GetBaseArchiveURL function in
$prefix/Mailman/Archive/Archiver.py which bases it on the config variable
PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL. Learn something new every day.
in fix_url.py for deatils; python is quite easy to read.
Indeed it is, once you get past the lack of statement delimiters and the
fact that indentation level determintes scope. :)
Interesting... I just made a similar change and I'm hoping it's going to
work. Maybe it won't *shrug*
My next thought is to use Apache to rewrite the urls. It can be done,
but it should be consistent in Mailman in the first place. Anyone?
