[Mailman-Users] Installation Question: Is a web server necessary ?
Can one use Mailman 3 without it being behind a web service ? I know the older MM can be managed by emailing commands to it. Does MM3 work like that as well ?

[Mailman-Users] Installation on GoDaddy servers?
Hello all, I'm new here, and new to mailman. Please forgive the basic question. I'm mainly curious if you believe it would be possible to install mailman on a GoDaddy deluxe account? I've asked their support, but received a rather vague reply (shocker). I learned python is supported; however, they weren't familiar with mailman and thus, couldn't answer any further queries. So, any ideas on what may or may not work as far as installing on a shared web host? Thank you for any feedback.

If you mean a GoDaddy Deluxe 4GH web hosting account, I suspect it would probably not be possible or would be a very intricate and kludgey process. I think you would need at least an Economy Virtual Dedicated Server to install Mailman easily. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] Installation On Separate Server Plausible?
I am being told that my Postfix email server can no longer run Apache on the same physical server. The management has decided for specific reasons that Apache can only be installed and configured on the web server, not the mail server. The mail server will simply run Postfix / Dovecot. This will force me to move web mail (RoundCube) MailMan to my web server! My question is can I have MailMan function from scratch (no data needs to be migrated to the new install) from my web server and work? My mail and web server are on the same LAN and same network/subnet, just separate servers. They don't want IT to manage several instances of the same application on different servers, in this case Apache.

The management has decided for specific reasons that Apache can only be installed and configured on the web server, not the mail server. The mail server will simply run Postfix / Dovecot. You can certainly configure Mailman to use your new mail-only server as the external mail interface to the world, but I think you're going to need to have some sort of mail server running on the web server machine, even if that mail server is not otherwise externally accessible. The reason is because of the way that messages are handed off to Mailman -- via e-mail. The only other solution I can see is to have your mail server and web server both mount and share the same file storage, so that the mail server can provide the message input to Mailman (as well as the archiving, mailing the messages back out to the subscribers, etc...), and the web server can provide the WebUI for interacting with Mailman. However, neither of these is an easy configuration to set up or maintain, at least not relative to the typical method. I think we've got some pointers on doing this kind of thing in the FAQ and in the archives of this list, but there may be some details which are not clear to you and will need further clarification.

You can't just install a web server on another machine and expect it to magically have all the data.

I.e., run Postfix (or another MTA) on the new Mailman/webserver and use aliases or whatever on the primary MX to relay list mail to Mailman. You can also do this step by having list mail delivered to mailboxes on the primary MX and then moving the mail via pop3/imap from the mailboxes to Mailman with fetchmail or similar, although that may be more difficult to configure. -- Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.netThe highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Setting up a webhost MTA to talk only to the mail server host is much easier than setting up a networked filesystem, and far more robust in my experience. Even if you already have networked file systems in place, the requirements placed by mail servers, webservers, and local users on the networked file system are rather different, and unless you're already managing all of those on the networked file system, trying to tune and maintain the networked file system is going to cost way more in admin time and system down time than the internal-only MTA on the webhost.

[Mailman-Users] Installation on a current mail system
Just want confirmation before moving forward. We ran a test setup Redhat 8/Sendmail and Mailman is working great. Now I have to repeat the setup on a current linux box that handles our mail scrubbing. So I would like to install Mailman on a production sendmail box that we scrub emails with Spamassassin before passing internally. Will installing Mailman interfere with any of the operations of the current system? We still want the system to handle the mail sent to those designated domains, and I was going to set up the Mailman domains (it handles two) in Sendmail and hosts. Would I need to run virtual servers, or can Mailman co-exist with Sendmail that handles 'regular' mail. Any other caveats I should know about?

[Mailman-Users] Installation problem: 404 Errors
Dear list, I'm having major problems installing Mailman on my SuExec enabled server. I have followed pertinent instructions regarding installation in this environment, but cannot seem to access any mailman pages; all I get is 404 Not Found errors. The virtual host is set up ok on the server config. files, to the best of my knowledge, as are the permissions. Is there a specific set of steps I could take to help me diagnose exactly where this problem is rooted? I'm a Linux novice, and mailman is my first application installation, so this is likely a very basic error on my part. I'm wondering if it might be a server issue re. SuExec, rather than with mailman per se. When I command: suexec -V, I get: -D AP_DOC_ROOT=/var/www. However, this is not my web doc path, which is /home/dir1/dir2/html I installed mailman within the suexec path (as mentioned in the set of instructions I followed), at /var/www/mailman Could this be at the root of the issue? And if so, would installing mailman within the web doc path work vis-a-vis SuExec? Any help greatly appreciated.. Dan _ Windows Live Messenger has arrived.

[Mailman-Users] Installation/Config Problems
Greetings, I will start by saying that I both a newbie to both Mailman and Python, although I have worked with Perl for years. I have installed Mailman 2.1.5 and integrated with Postfix v2.1.5. I have search the FAQ's with little success. The Mailman issue is that when I try to add the Mailman alias db using the following line in main.cf: alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases,hash:/etc/postfix/aliases,hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/aliases I get the following error messages: May 23 11:53:27 dev postfix/smtpd[19360]: [ID 947731 mail.crit] fatal: unsupported dictionary type: hash May 23 11:53:28 dev postfix/master[243]: [ID 947731 mail.warning] warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd pid 19360 exit status 1 May 23 11:53:28 dev postfix/master[243]: [ID 947731 mail.warning] warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd: bad With the squid problem, I have tried a couple of different options with little success to point to the correct DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN and when I use the '%s' param it appends port 8000 and everything is pointed to port 8000 which is squid's httpd_accel_port. When I try to put in the FQDN 'http://myserver.domain.com/mailman' in mm_cfg.py, I get an error message on the webpage. Who do I send the bug information too? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The fix_url used in the withlist script fixed the problem with the initial
mailing list mailman, but the /mailman/create page still shows the form
posting to the 8000 port.
Any ideas about how to resolve this issue?
If VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW = On (default), the hostname in the post url
of the form and also in the Create a hostname Mailing List line at
the top of the page comes from the environment (if found). Normally,
it will be the value of HTTP_HOST or (SERVER_NAME if no HTTP_HOST)
also an attempt is made to strip SERVER_PORT from the end. Here is the
full code in case it makes sense to you.
def get_domain():
host = os.environ.get('HTTP_HOST', os.environ.get('SERVER_NAME'))
port = os.environ.get('SERVER_PORT')
# Strip off the port if there is one
if port and host.endswith(':' + port):
host = host[:-len(port)-1]
if mm_cfg.VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW and host:
return host.lower()
else:
# See the note in Defaults.py concerning DEFAULT_HOST_NAME
# vs. DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST.
hostname = mm_cfg.DEFAULT_HOST_NAME or mm_cfg.DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST
return hostname.lower()
If you are not using virtual hosting, you can set VIRTUAL_HOST_OVERVIEW
= Off in mm_cfg.py and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST will be used instead.
I think the real solution is just to insure that the URL used to access
the create page doesn't have the port. Note that the link to the
create page from the admin overview page is built in the same way.

Well, I'll be *!?**!!, this (almost) got it working; thanks. It turned out to be a litle more complicated...

After following both your instructions, I got a web page, but with this error: Group mismatch error. Mailman expected the CGI wrapper script to be executed as group web, but the system's web server executed the CGI script as group mailman. Try tweaking the web server to run the script as group web, or re-run configure, providing the command line option `--with-cgi-gid=mailman'. Ok, I had configured with '--with-cgi-gid=web', as per INSTALL (Apache runs as 'web'). So Apache suEXEC'ed the scripts as 'mailman', so defeating the configuration option. As a fix/hack, I changed the owner/group of everything in cgi-bin to web/web, to prevent Apache suEXEC'ing. This got me further; as far as problem 2, in fact. Problem 2: Apache now runs the scripts as 'web', which is what mailman expects, but I now get another problem: mailman claims to hit an internal bug. At the end of the traceback I get: IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/home/mailman/mailman-2.1.5/logs/error' Ok, mailman is running as web and wants to write into a directory owned by mailman, and can't. So I run /usr/sbin/usermod -G admin, mailman web And everything springs into life; I can now get listinfo and admin pages, complete with logos.

[Mailman-Users] Installation problem: 500 internal server error
Apologies for posting an installation problem... :( I've just installed mailman, and am having a couple of problems. The first is that http://dom.ain/mailman/ returns '403 forbidden', and any other page (ie. http://dom.ain/create) returns '500 internal server error'. The INSTALL file suggests that this could be a GID/UID problem, but this doesn't seem very likely and I'm reluctant to reinstall (yet). There's nothing relevant in either /var/log (apart from the Apache logs, below), or in $prefix/logs/error. There's nothing in Apache's 'error_log', but 'cgi.log' has some interesting entries: [2005-04-27 11:07:05]: uid: (mailman/mailman) gid: (mailman/mailman) cmd: create [2005-04-27 11:07:05]: directory is writable by others: (/usr/local/home/mailman/mailman-2.1.5/cgi-bin) I installed as user/grp mailman/mailman, and 'check_perms' reports no problems. The cgi-bin directory in the message above is not actually 'writable by others'; its permissions are 'drwxrwsr-x'. I tried 'chmod o+w', but this made no difference (and the message in cgi.log remained the same). Any ideas? One potential problem is that I've installed this on a virtual server on which I don't have root permissions. I get an 'admin' login which has various root-like capabilities, and I think I've probably completed the root parts of the installation correctly, but I can't be sure. The server is running Linux, but I don't think it's a standard distribution; 'uname -a' returns 'Linux [mydomain] 2.4.29-hs-1'.

[Mailman-Users] Installation
Hello Guys and Girls, Ok I admit it I am stupid but who the heck to i sucessfully install Mailman on a RH 8.0 machine running cyrus for pop and imap and Postfix for smtp, I have dowloaded a script that I found a link on from Postscripts web site called postfix-to-mailman.py but when I am trying to run it it stops with a messsage saying LOCAL not set from what I understand that this actually means that there it can't find postfix? anybody with any idea on how to resolve this and if there is perhaps another way of installing mailman without to much hassle.

[Mailman-Users] Installation question
Hello, My organization has contracted with a consultant for computer server resources. The consultant in turn, is contracting with the actual provider of computer hardware and communication resources. Our consultant does not have Root access on the server. Is it absolutely necessary to have root access to install Mailman? Do we have any other options to ensure a successfull installation?

If you got the files from someplace else (e.g., a binary package created by your OS vendor) and the documentation was not included, you should get your support from them.

[Mailman-Users] Installation - Admin interface question
Hello, I'm trying to install Mailman 2.1.4 on an HP-UX 11.00 machine. I think I've done everything correctly, but not being that familiar with list servers or web interfaces in general, I've gotten to the point where I'm stumped. Maybe someone can help. I'm in Step 4 (Final System Setup) of the installation doc. I've created the site-wide mailing list. I've browsed the sitelist.cfg file and decided for the time being just to accept the defaults. The next step is to subscribe myself to the site list - exactly how do I do that? It says to use the admin interface - but how do I get to it? If someone can either point me to some doc. that explains this, or explain it to me, I'd be most grateful! Let me know if you need more info. They are probably basic questions, but I'd appreciate any help I can get.

Everything seems to be installed correctly; web interface works, mail seems to go to the right place... but for some reason MM is refusing to send out mail (no admin notices, no subscription confirmations, nada. I am getting no error logs, no bounces, nothing to help me figure out why. If you can help with this I would much appreciate it, and I can also pay a small amount to help cover your time.

Check out FAQ 3.14, if that doesn't work (including posting the error logs to the list), then I'll be happy to help you as a consultant.

[Mailman-Users] Installation problem /mailman/create inaccessible...
Hi, first time using mailman. I'm getting 404 error when attempting to access /mailman/create for the first time. I'm using OpenBSD 3.4 and mailman-2.1.2p0.tgz package. The httpd process is running as www, what create is expecting. But it doesn't even seem like its able to find the file? Here's a diff between the original httpd.conf and the modified for Mailman.

[Mailman-Users] Installation woes
I'm really excited about switching my newsletter list from majordomo over to Mailman, but I'm having an installation issue I thought I'd run by you all. I'm on FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE (just updated yesterday). I only have Python 2.2, but I'm not certain that's my issue. According to the README.BSD I used: make DIRGETGID=: install But make comes back with: Creating architecture independent directories... chmod o-r /usr/local/mailman/archives/private Creating architecture dependent directories... make: don't know how to make install. Stop *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/local/mailman-2.1.1. Any help would be appreciated. I admit that I am not a FreeBSD expert, but I am willing to learn. TIA.

DG == Dan Gookin [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: DG According to the README.BSD I used: DG make DIRGETGID=: install DG But make comes back with: Just skip that whole bit and let it install with setgid. It is less painful to do so. Even though the setgid bit is unnecessary in the BSD file system, it is mostly harmless to be there. The only side effect is that if you have nightly scripts that scan for setuid/setgid file changes, these get picked up sometimes. Also, I think that some other scripts in Mailman now check for setgid and complain and they are not affected by the above option to make. Anyhow, if you're using FreeBSD, just go ahead and use the Mailman port -- that's what I do ;-) -- Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org

Yet it won't install. Granted, I don't fully understand all the setuid/setgid stuff with the tiny s in there and all that. My temptation is just to go ahead and install as root, but the instructions say specifically NOT to. And this still doesn't address that Make doesn't understand install.

The problem is that the installation process cannot find a C language
compiler which will be subsequently needed to run the make install.
If you have a C compiler installed then it may be that it cannot be found
unless you add the path to it to the PATH environment variable of the user
you are funning configure as.
Or it may be you need to install the C compiler.
If you need more help then you should identify the type and version of
Unix-like OS you are running when posting the request for that help.

It might be possiable that you have 2 different installations of python? And root is using the correct version.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Installation and Configuration help on Mailman
This is not a problem. If you look at the cron jobs that you faithfully put in for Mailman you will see that one of them is specific to gating mail over to a news server. Comment this particular script out of the cron (then uncomment it later should you change your mind about News servers!). The error simply says that the script tried to attach to a local News server and couldn't find one. When you said that your users were not getting notifications, did you mean that they weren't getting notifications that their mail was being held (ie moderated). If so, then check the Web-Admin settings.

I can browse the archives and can send mails to Archive. But none of the list members gets any notification. When looked further I found the following LOG message to my mailman (root) account. I am NOT planning to use NNTP servers. Is it a MUST? Do I have to have a NNTP service running on my system? Any help / pointers are appreciated!

[Mailman-Users] Installation instructions seem to be missing
Hello. I'm trying to setup Mailman on a Red Hat 8.0 system. I have not been able to find any setup information indicating how to activate and access the Mailman service. The rpm is installed, but your web pages and documentation do not indicate how to get things running or how to access it... Am I missing something? For example, do I need to put a pointer to Mailman in my Apache config? Or do I point to a certain port? Perhaps there is a How-To I'm missing? This page: http://mailman.sourceforge.net/site.html Has some useful operational info, but tells me nothing about the actual setup and activation of the service. It was all I could find claiming to be for admins. Please steer me to the setup docs. I'm sure other people are experiencing the same frustrations.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Installation instructions seem to be missing
I always use the source for the install since there is so much that needs to be done outside the RPM (plus it is sooo easy to install via source). Fortunately for you other folks like to use RPM's, here is a comment from one of them (taken from the archives - which you should feel free to search)... To quote Jeremy Portzer: To find out information about an RPM's maker, etc., run rpm -qip filename.rpm . If you run that command on the Red Hat Linux mailman-2.0.13-1.i386.rpm, you'll see a bunch of EXTREMELY important setup notes -- things you must do after installing the RPM. Follow those instructions! Don't complain if you don't follow them and stuff doesn't work! *grin* If that doesn't resolve your problems, then check out the FAQ entry: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showfile=faq03.014.htp Take care - Jon Carnes === On Sat, 2003-01-11 at 23:28, Tom Loscheider wrote: Hello.
