I just had a weird problem with the site-wide "mailman" list: the links to it on the listinfo and admin pages on my site don't work, apparently because their case is wrong.
I updated from 2.0.x to 2.1 back in January, then later I applied the xss patch, and today I've upgraded to 2.1.1. Back when I upgraded to 2.1, I neglected to create the site-wide list. Today I noticed the "Site list is missing" log message and a quick Google search revealed the solution. After creating the "mailman" list with "bin/newlist mailman", I went to my Web server's .../mailman/listinfo page and clicked on the "Mailman" link in the list of mailing lists at the bottom. I was redirected to the same page. A little investigation revealed that the page contained a link to .../mailman/listinfo/mailman, which doesn't work, rather than to .../mailman/listinfo/Mailman, which DOES work. The same thing happened with the .../mailman/admin/mailman link on the .../mailman/admin page. Restarting Apache and my browser didn't solve the problem. Changing the public name (general/real_name) of the list from "Mailman" to "mailman" didn't help, either. Even more strangely, links like .../mailman/admin/mailman/privacy DO work, as do the capitalized versions like .../mailman/admin/Mailman/privacy. Since then I've "solved" the problem by hiding the site-wide list (privacy/subscribing/advertised set to 'No') as suggested in this thread. If someone will tell me the solution I'll be happy to document it for the FAQ. Thanks, Roger Environment: Fully updated Red Hat Linux 7.3 x86 apache-1.3.27-2 python2-2.2.2-11.7.3 -- Roger H.
