Hi,
I work as a volunteer for NEP: New Economics Paper, see
http://nep.repec.org. We have a lot of lists. All have
identical setup, bar the name, title, and owners. I need
to automate the configuration. But that does not seem to
work. It has not been working for months. I wrote to
the Debian maintainer but I have no response. I am in dispair.
I run the version of mailman distributed with the testing
verison of Debian
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /home/admnep/mailman/bin/version
Using Mailman version: 2.1.4
I can create a test list
sh-2.05b$ /var/lib/mailman/bin/newlist testlist [EMAIL PROTECTED] testpass
To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your /etc/aliases (or
equivalent) file by adding the following lines, and possibly running the
`newaliases' program:
## testlist mailing list
testlist: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post testlist"
testlist-admin: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin testlist"
testlist-bounces: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces testlist"
testlist-confirm: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm testlist"
testlist-join: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join testlist"
testlist-leave: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave testlist"
testlist-owner: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner testlist"
testlist-request: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request testlist"
testlist-subscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe testlist"
testlist-unsubscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe testlist"
Hit enter to notify testlist owner...
I can then output its configuration
/var/lib/mailman/bin/config_list -o /tmp/testlist.conf testlist
I can use the same testlist file to configure my list
/var/lib/mailman/bin/config_list -i /tmp/testlist.conf testlist
No error reported, but the list is missconfiguered and can not
be accessed on the web interface. Here is what's happening, say
if I want to configure again
sh-2.05b$ /var/lib/mailman/bin/config_list -i /tmp/testlist.conf testlist
sh-2.05b$ /var/lib/mailman/bin/config_list -o /tmp/testlist.conf testlist

The same error on the web interface
