I've been using mailman for a few years to manage a couple mailing lists, but I just now subscribed to this list.
Over the weekend I moved my lists from one server to another. The process was fairly painless ... I just packed up the archives and lists directories and copied those over to a new server. I even upgraded from 2.1.5 to 2.1.6 at the same time. And the lists are functioning great in the new location but for one thing. The new server is configured using Plesk, and Plesk sets up the mailman admin pages on http://lists.mydomain.xyz On my old server I'd done it all myself, and they were set up on http://mydomain.xyz This means the config.pck file from my old server has this value: 'web_page_url': 'http://healership.com/mailman/', Whereas the config.pck file generated on my new server has this value: 'web_page_url': 'http://lists.healership.com/mailman/', I want to use the old config.pck because that's the one that has all my members and other settings. It looks to me that all I have to do is change the web_page_url value. One can easily dump the .pck file using this dump command, but I don't know how to "undump" it. I searched in the archives and found this answer: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2002-May/020222.html But the bin/move_list script doesn't exist. So, as that guy asked 3 yrs ago, how the heck do you undump one of these .pck files??? Oh, and I know nothing about Python ... so when the usage message for the dump command says it dumps a "python pickle" that doesn't tell me anything, and only makes me think of the old Arlo Guthrie song about "I don't wanna die, I just wanna ride my motorcy-le" ... Maybe there's something in python to deal with them pickle things, but I sure as heck don't know what it would be. - David Herron ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
