Gosh!  For autox.team.net/archive I'm using MHonArc and Namazu. Compared 
to these, Mnogosearch seems cutting edge!


And yes, I am considering newer, better search engines for the Team Net

No need to, the fix was easy.  I had changed some permissions and 
ownership of the mailman cgi files while trying to figure out the 
proble, just needed to change them back.  The problem was the difference 
in the Apache CGI modules.  If you use prefork MPM ( Multi Processing 
Modul ) you need to use mod_cgi.  If you use worker MPM you need to use 
mod_cgid.  The reverse combinations do not work.  One will actually give 
you an error and not start the daemon, the other combination, which I 
had, will start the server and give no indication whatsoever about any 
problem, other than the 503 Service Unavailable code when trying to 
execute CGI programs.


All works now, I can finally get to the 2,761 held messages that have 
been building up for the last week.

Progress!  Well, I guess, at least a differnet error.  Changed some 
Apache configs regarding cgi and now when I go to


http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo

I get

 We're sorry, we hit a bug!

Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of

Have you run Mailman's bin/check_perms? I suspect some kind of

but do check Apache's error.log which should have more information.



Yes, I have run check_perms, no problems there.  All the other web pages 
at autox.team.net seem to work just fine, it is only the mailman pages 
that give the 503 unavailable error.  Frustrating because some pages 
work, some don't and the Apache error logs are of no help in trying to 
determine if this is an Apache problem or a mailman problem.

[Mailman-Users] Frustrating web page issues

2019-04-23 Thread Mark J Bradakis via Mailman-Users
So a couple of days ago I had a server just up and die.  It was put in 
place about 12 years ago, if not more.  Luckily I was working on 
replacing it, so I had  a new box under construction almost ready to 
take its place.  But the old server dies before I could make a smooth 
transition and get everything working on the new server.


Got the new server on line, up and running, the email lists are doing 
just fine.  But for some reason there are problems with the web pages, 
like http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo will not work.  And I don't 
know why.  Here's the relevant lines from the httpd config file:



ScriptAlias /mailman/ "/local/mailman/teamnet/cgi-bin/"


  Require all granted
  Options ExecCGI



This was enough to work on the old server.  New server is Fedora 29, 
mailman version is mailman-2.1.29, Apache: Server version: Apache/2.4.39 
(Fedora)  I have gone over the mailman installation instructions, and 
can't figure out what is going on.  I must be missing something really 
basic and obvious, but what?  Maybe I am just getting old and senile, I  
solved problems like this for a quarter of a century as a sys admin at 
the U of Utah Computer Science department, must be really rusty and out 
of practice.


Fun fun fun.

[Mailman-Users] Sorting pending requests?

2018-08-27 Thread Mark J Bradakis via Mailman-Users

I have a feeling I may have asked this question a few years ago. Maybe not.

When you go to the admin web page of pending moderator requests, the 
messages are presented in a list using alphabetical order of the 
sender.  Is there a way to easily change this so they are presented by 
date, oldest to newest?


Thanks,

This can happen if the email address you entered is not a list member. What's

I used an address I know is a list member, nothing related to it in mischief

The last time I had a really weird problem like this it turned out to be some 
bad disk blocks in the mailman tree.
I may take the machine to single user and do some disk checks.

Re: [Mailman-Users] This is new

2014-08-16 Thread Mark J Bradakis




There is an issue with the list's data_version attribute vs. 
Mailman.Version.DATA_FILE_VERSION. When the from_is_list and other new 
attributes were added, Mailman.Version.DATA_FILE_VERSION was incremented to 
make it greater than the list's data_version attribute which in turn will cause 
the lists to be updated the first time they are instantiated.

Perhaps you had some other patches that incremented 
Mailman.Version.DATA_FILE_VERSION, so that the list's data_version attribute was 
not < Mailman.Version.DATA_FILE_VERSION causing the update to be skipped.

The way to fix this is to set Mailman.Version.DATA_FILE_VERSION to a value 
greater than the data_version attribute of the lists.

First run this bash script

for l in `/path/to/mailman/bin/list_lists --bare`
   do /path/to/mailman/bin/dumpdb /path/to/mailman/lists/$l/config.pck \
 | grep data_version
   done

This will print the data_version for each list. If N is the largest such value, 
edit Mailman/Version.py to change the line

DATA_FILE_VERSION = 104

to set a value > N. Then visit the listinfo overview page which should update 
all the lists.

Then so this doesn't happen again, set DATA_FILE_VERSION back to 104 in 
Mailman/Version.py and create a file containing the single line

mlist.data_version = 104

and run this bash script

cd /path/to/mailman/bin/
for l in `./list_lists --bare`
  do ./config_list -i /path/to/above/file $l
  done

That should fix things.



The problem lists all have 98 as the data_version.  Config_list does not work, 
for input or output.

[Mailman-Users] This is new

2014-08-16 Thread Mark J Bradakis

S I finally decide to sit down and try to figure out why 
http://www.team.net/mailman/admin
and http://autox.team.net/mailman/admin return different results, even though 
it is the same machine.

Checking on some list configs, I do  bin/config_list -o -  and get 
this from one list,
but not others:

[...]
# href="?VARHELP=privacy/sender/dmarc_moderation_action">
# dmarc_moderation_action applies to this message with an action other
# than Accept, that action rather than this is applied
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./config_list", line 364, in

  File "./config_list", line 357, in main
do_output(listname, outfile)
  File "./config_list", line 128, in do_output
do_list_categories(mlist, k, None, outfp)

value = getattr(mlist, varname)
  File "/local/mailman/teamnet/Mailman/MailList.py", line 146, in __getattr__
raise AttributeError, name
AttributeError: from_is_list



So I go to the admin page for that list and get the "We've hit a bug page."

Fun. Any quick fixes to the config.pck file?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Logging fail?

2014-05-12 Thread Mark J Bradakis

Mark Sapiro wrote:




What's in Mailman's qrunner log?


Nothing.



There can't be "Nothing" in the qrunner log unless you never started
mailmnanctl or you're looking at the wrong log?




My turn to apologize, I should have specified that the logs contained nothing 
related to
that specific message, and not implied they were completely empty.


The message was in qfiles/in and once I reverted back to 2.1.14,
rebooted and restarted mailman
it got delivered.



Then IncomingRunner wasn't processing the queue. It may have died, or
due to some install glitch it may have been looking at a different in/
queue from the one where the process invoked by Postfix put it. Maybe
the install of 2.1.18 put things in different places so the Postfix
aliases pointed to the 2.1.14 install and not 2.1.18. That might also
explain why the qrunner log was empty if it truly was.



I'll try reinstalling the latest and greatest mailman, see if I can figure out
what IncomingRunner is actually doing.

One browser, seamonkey, does the download dialog, as does Chrome on my 
wife's Windows machine.


But firefox returns with a 404 !

This is the default apache2 from 'apt-get install apache2' which
installs version 2.4.6.


The pieces of this puzzle do not seem to be even close to fitting together.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Well isn't that nice

2014-01-20 Thread Mark J Bradakis


You'd think that these lines in the config file would work like they 
used to, but apparently not:


ScriptAlias /mailman/ /local/mailman/teamnet/cgi-bin/
  
  Options +ExecCGI
  SetHandler cgi-script
  Require all granted
  


Of course the apache logs show success, as I am presented with a dialog 
box about whether to save the file or cancel.


Fun.

[Mailman-Users] Well isn't that nice

2014-01-20 Thread Mark J Bradakis
Moving Mailman from an old Fedora system to a new Ubuntu ( 13.10 ) 
server.  going to the mailman/listinfo or admin links results in

the web pages asking if I want to download the binary file.

Actually I want the file to be executed on the server, and give me the 
expected pages.  Time for a little FAQ and archive research, I guess,

find out what config flag I've overlooked in Apache2.

You need to edit the mailman crontab, which is what controls this behavior.

I set personalization to yes and have something like the following in

[Mailman-Users] A rare moment

2010-10-10 Thread Mark J Bradakis

I've been running various automotive related mailing lists,
web pages, FTP sites and such for over twenty years.  It is
a labor of love, not a means of making money, so tending to
outstanding requests is not top priority.  But I've had a
nasty cold the last few days, and have spent some time
working on Team.Net since I can't do much else besides
sit at the computer, sniffle and cough.

With 60 or so lists and 12,000+ subscribers around the
globe it is easy to get behind.  I've seen 10,000 or more
held messages at times.  Today, though:

autox /local/mailman/teamnet/data  131 :: ls held*
ls: No match.


This could be the first time in many years I have *no*
outstanding requests to deal with.  Sweet.

[Mailman-Users] Slow mail problem fixed

2010-02-17 Thread Mark J Bradakis

A current thread reminded me of the trouble I was having with
Mailman taking 2 - 3 hours to process messages and send them
out.  I requested the list's help in tracking down the problem.

Turned out to be a hardware issue.  Some bad disk blocks
showed up in the qfiles tree so some qrunner processes were waiting
and waiting and waiting on bad I/O calls before timing out and
continuing on.  Problem fixed, Team.Net is back to maybe a minute
or two between receipt and resending list messages.

Gee, it wasn't a mailman problem after all, should I say
thanks for nothing ;-)

[Mailman-Users] post and smtp logs?

2010-02-08 Thread Mark J Bradakis

Can anyone tell me at what point in the process of delivering
list messages does information get written to logs/post and
logs/smtp ?

Currently a message comes in, postfix hands it off to
mailman and the message is written to the qfiles/out
directory within a second or so.

But it isn't until two, maybe two and a half hours later
an entry for the message is made in the logs when the
message is finally sent out.  What is mailman doing in
that long interval?  The outgoing queue runner is running,
staying mostly idle.

Mail that is not routed through mailman behaves normally,
getting processed quickly.  Two+ hours seems like a long
time for mailman to be twiddling its thumbs.

Have you tried VERP?

  


I'd rather not turn on VERP for all 60+ lists I'm running.  As I recall
it is a domain wide setting, not a per list setting.

I was hoping there might be a way to use something like $(user_address)
in non-digest mode on digest mailings for just the one list with the

[Mailman-Users] Personalized Digests

2009-11-10 Thread Mark J Bradakis

Speaking of brain dead AOL cretins, is there any way to get some sort of
personalization in digests that are sent out?  I've got a few lists 
where some

clueless AOL dimwit getting digests is marking the mail as abuse.

I would love to simply remove them from the list, but thanks to the
policies AOL has set forth, I have no way of finding out who they are.

get sent to an address that adds them into the archive.  RealSoonNow 
I'll muck
with mailman to get the archive link from the Mailman pages to point to the
right place.  Check http://www.team.net/archive to see what MHarc looks 
like.

[Mailman-Users] Taboo body?

2007-06-27 Thread Mark J. Bradakis
I've poked around a bit in various list related archives, but haven't found
a definitive answer.  Has anyone implemented some sort of add-on, filter
or whatever to give mailman something like the majordomo
'global taboo body' rejection capability?  All the predefined content
filters seem to just pass or delete attachments, and not actually work on
basic message body text.  Will I have to just roll my own?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Extract list of lists with population?

2004-07-01 Thread Mark J. Bradakis
Depending on your shell, something like
foreach l ( `/your/path/to/mailman/bin/list_lists -b `)
echo -n $l
/your/path/to/mailman/bin/list_members | wc -l
end
might do the trick.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Send to list error

2004-05-13 Thread Mark J. Bradakis

DEFAULT_URL_HOST   = '10.20.1.163'
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = '10.20.1.163'
10.* is an unrouted network.  Any properly configured MTA will ignore anything
coming from an external host claiming to be 10.whatever.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Creating a list of approved senders

2004-04-27 Thread Mark J. Bradakis
There was a patch sent to the list about a year ago that allowed
one to use addresses of the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] as automatically
approved addresses.  We applied it to our Mailman 2.1.1 here at the
U of Utah School of Computing.  It is real handy for professors to
add the teaching assistant list as an approved poster for the class
list.  Basically the patch changes one section of code in Maillist.py
so that if a +listname is found, it checks the membership of that list
to see if the sender is a member.
We don't know yet if the patch will work with Mailman 2.1.4, I'll be
testing it RealSoonNow.
Now, all I have to do is remember where I put the patch source

Re: [Mailman-Users] From field displayed by MS Outlook

2004-01-21 Thread Mark J. Bradakis
I could find nothing in the archive about open bug reports on outlook
and displaying addresses...
Why would stupid behavior in Outlook be considered a mailman bug?
If people want to use Microsoft's Virus Propagation Wizard to mangle
their mail, that should be their problem.

[Mailman-Users] Approved posters, accept_these_nonmembers

2003-03-24 Thread Mark J. Bradakis

While digging around in the FAQ and the archive, it seems there are many
references to setting 'accept_these_nonmembers' to a regular expression.
Does this actually work, and if so, can anyone provide a working example
for Mailman 2.1.1 we are running?

I'm assuming that one feature of majordomo, the ability to have approved
posting addresses included from a file with a list of addresses or the
name of another list, does not have an equivalent in mailman.  Is this
correct?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Can't run configure file!

2002-05-09 Thread Mark J. Bradakis


The first line of configure should be something like

  #! 

Does the program named in your configure file exist, and have the proper
permissions?
