Hi Richard!

There's no log in $prefix/logs/error.. does that mean apache doesn't
even start the cgi?


It is not clear what is going wrong as this point.

What should be happening is that:

1. Apache should run the $exec-prefix/cgi-bin/admin CGI wrapper. This in turn runs:

2. The Python script $prefix/Mailman/Cgi/admin.py

From what you have said the first step does not appear to succeed. If it had then any subsequent error would have been reported by the wrapper. No evidence of a Python problem as such.

You could check your syslog to see if the the wrapper managed to write anything there. But, if the Mailman install process did not report any errors, I suspect your problem lies with the httpd.conf entries. Where is $exec-prefix/cgi-bin/admin in your setup and what httpd.conf entries did you add?

My versions:

RedHat 9
Apache 2.0.48
Python 2.3.4
Mailman 2.1.5

I installed following the INSTALL-Instructions..
(compiling etc. i arrived at httpd.conf and did the changes..)

I just upgraded to Python 2.3.4 and recompiled mailman but the
error still occurs.


Anything logged in the Mailman error log ($prefix/logs/error)?
What OS? What version of MM? How installed?


Hello everyone,

i noticed that other people have a similiar issue, but there was no
help yet.

I installed mailman and after doing the necessary changes to
httpd.conf i tried to check out if the cgi will work or not. and it
does not.

http://myserver/mailman/admin

will give a

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and inform
them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done
that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error
log.


The httpd-log says: Premature End of script headers: admin

apache runs the cgi-bin as user/group: nobody

where is the error? i followed the instructions..

seems that something's wrong with python?!!

thanks!
