[Mailman-Users] mailman 2.0.6 - no mail distribution to the subscribers
OK, I have everything installed and "working" RH 7.1.94 (Roswell) Sendmail Apache The web interface works, people can subscribe, get confirmed, get a welcome message, but when mail is sent to the "list address" it just disappears into void Any help would be appreciated...

[Mailman-Users] re-asking the question on MM 2.0.6 et al
OK, my list isn't that big yet, and can be scrapped, and re-installed. I'm trying to move a 300 member Listserv list to my own server using Mailman. Now, Being RH 7.1, there is no "/home/www/..." any more, it's all in "/var/www/". When I installed 2.0.6 "admin" did not xfer to the mailman dir under /var/www/mailman/ so I copied it there and things started "working" (or so I thought). I thought I followed the installation readme to the letter, including the arcane command descriptions, GID's and the "mailman" user, and group. I had to chmod a couple of dirs, passed the check_perms test, and could see all of the things you would expect to see, subs, confirms, etc. going out to subscribers. the Aliases, and ScriptAlias settings are OK in sendmail.conf, and the alias file, and I assume, that the list mail address (the dist. address) is [EMAIL PROTECTED], RIGHT? It's not something stupid like [EMAIL PROTECTED] ??? Does the specific address [EMAIL PROTECTED] have to be added somewhere else along with "mailman" as a user/group/email recipient?? Does someone have an easier-to-follow or specific example based install readme or a list of "gotchas" like installing mailman under root instead of some other user (like mailman) The MTA (maillog/sendmail logs) don't tell me much - I see "sent" - 2.0.0 for the sent items - but they never show up at the other subscribers mailboxes... I'm flummoxed. JSC -- Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users

[Mailman-Users] MM2.1a3 another strange python bug
I ended up restoring the 2.0.6 installation (I love BRU) but I didn't get any response to the following error when I accessed the listinfo page. All of the templates were in the correct directory and the permissions were set. The old templates were also all there, with a "xxx.html.prev" extension. I know the default language is english, but I think it's looking for "lang"=en which doesn't look like it was set during the make install process Bug in Mailman version 2.1a3 We're sorry, we hit a bug!

does someone have a specific example of the correct settings or lines in the httpd.conf file (v.8x or v.9x) - I have a feeling there needs to be a secondary directive beyond just Alias /listname/pipermail/ "/var/www/mailman/archive/[public or private]/" the physical archives are where they belong - just no one can access them...

There is no problem -yet-. 2.0.6 is running well, 2.1.x is in beta but it has some new features I'd really like to be using. I installed it [2.1.x] while running 7.1 and has a problem with it not recognizing the new templates. I keep really good backups, and restored 2.0.6. and was back in business as before. I'm looking for input from anyone who has installed (upgraded) 2.0.6 to 2.1x beta **and** did it on RH 7.2 (or roswell 7.1-94) On Wednesday 31 October 2001 09:39 am, you wrote: > Hello, > > Camel - Jay S.
