I can't get mailman version (1:2.1.26-1ubuntu0.6) to run on an ubuntu
18.04 installation with apache2 running in chroot. I've done the same
thing before, a long time ago and it worked perfectly back then.
chroot directory is /home/www
(I admit that it's strange to put it there, but the provided setup only
has huge /home partition and small /)
vhost configuration:
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName lists.DOMAIN.TLD
ServerAdmin webad...@domain.tld
<ifmodule mpm_itk_module>
AssignUserID www-data www-data
</ifmodule>
DocumentRoot /home/lists/httpdocs/site/
<Directory /home/lists/httpdocs/site/>
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
<Directory /var/lib/mailman/archives/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin/">
AllowOverride all
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Require all granted
</Directory>

Here is the significant part of the fstab file that provides the
necessary directories in the chroot environment:
/etc/mailman /home/www/etc/mailman none
defaults,bind,ro
/usr/lib/mailman /home/www/usr/lib/mailman none
defaults,bind,ro
/usr/share/mailman /home/www/usr/share/mailman none
defaults,bind,ro
/usr/share/images/mailman /home/www/usr/share/images/mailman
none defaults,bind,ro
/var/lib/mailman /home/www/var/lib/mailman none
defaults,bind
/var/log/mailman /home/www/var/log/mailman none
defaults,bind
/var/lock/mailman /home/www/var/lock/mailman none
defaults,bind
Result is:
Mailman CGI error!!!
The Mailman CGI wrapper encountered a fatal error. This entry is being
stored in your syslog:
No such file or directory
I have checked that all script files are accessible. There is no related
entry in either the syslog, the apache log files or the mailman log
files. I am not able to find more details about this error.
Any suggestions are welcome. Please ask for more detailed information.
Kind regards,
Nils
