Hey Mark, I get the standard
Error: You are not authorized to create new mailing lists error when trying to create a new list through the browser, despite setting the both the site password and list creator password to something simple like abc123 with mmsitepass. I did go through that FAQ a few times today, and tried out the different suggestions. Even creating a new list from the command line has the same problems after changing mm_cfg.py to include the 2 hostname specifications. It's odd because in my current installation I'm just using the usual hostname for the server, with no virtual hosts involved. Do you have any debugging suggestions? Should I possibly add some logging statements to listinfo.py at around line 104 and recompile ? There doesn't seem to be any indicitive messages in the logs. Is there also any reason why tarring up an existing working mailman configuration and swapping hostnames/DNS records might not work either?
