Re: [Mailman-Users] Mailman errors

I read the wiki and have inserted the "RedirectPermanent" statement in the
httpd.conf file and restarted apache.  Then I ran
"/usr/lib/mailman/bin/withlist -l -r fix_url aewa" and the following
results came back:

Importing fix_url...
Running fix_url.fix_url()...
Loading list aewa (locked)
Saving list
Finalizing

After that I tried to approve/discard some pending requests and received a
odd response when the next html page was not found:  "
http://aewa.c.agile-being-124522.internal/mailman/admindb/aewa;
Which to me looks like some sort of header I've seen in emails.  Apparently
the  "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/withlist -l -r fix_url aewa"  command  has
scrambled most of the web page archives.  I was able to find and fix it in
the config.pck file but some of the other admin pages still have url's with
the "aewa.c.agile-being" etc. in them.  Plus the archives are no longer
accessible.

Right now I am stumped.

Sorry, It wasn't  actually home I just cut and pasted the wrong line from
.bash_history.  I searched multiple directories but found the matches under
/var/lib/mailman

I'll check the maillogs in the morning.

re: the link, yes I recently converted the web site to https so I'll review
that link in the AM and see if that is it.

Thanks for the help

Ran dumpdb against all the pck files and saw no instances of "new-" yet
when using

find /home -xdev -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep -H "new-"

it finds matches in config.pck, config.pck.last & config.pck.safety

The domain is correct from the web page General Options -> host_name
attribute of the list

The dumpdb against config.pck shows a lot of list members email addresses,
"accept_non_members", "ban_list", etc.  It is very long (2413 lines).  What
specifically am I looking for to get the attributes?

[Mailman-Users] Mailman errors

2019-08-24 Thread Bill Richards
Earlier this month I email this list with issues I've had approving/discard
messages via the web interface (see below).

After digging around I've found that I maybe experiencing some kind if
config corruption in pck files under /var/lib/mailman/lists/mailman  When
looking through the smtp-failure log I noticed errors "Sender address
rejected: Domain not found" and it appears something has or is appending
the text "new-" to the beginning of the domain we use.  Further
investigation shows that "new-" is appended to the domain in the
config.pck, config.pck.last & config.pck.safety files.  I have no idea how
this got into the files but it appears to me the source of problem.  I have
reviewed the configuration of mailman via the administrative web interface
and it all appears correct (no arbitrary "new-" text) .  This is not a new
installation of mailman and has been in use for many years.  This issue
seemed to have started occurring in July of this year.  Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
