Mailman 2.1.11 is not compatible with Python 2.6. Install 2.1.12.

[Mailman-Users] Install problem with Mailman 2.1.11

Folks,

I am trying to install mailmail 2.1.11 and running into problems.   Log data is 
listed below. Any idea what might be happening?

[Mailman-Users] install problem

[Erich Neuwirth]

i just installed mailman 2.1.1 on debian manually because i need things 
in different directories, and because debina only is at 2.0.11.
my mailer is the current version of postfix from the debian distribution.
postfix works.

the strage thins is that
setgid_group=postdrop
on main.cf of postfix, but
--with-mail-gid=postdrop does not work.
i had to do
--with-mail-gid=nogroup
(i was told so by a mail with an error message).
mailman has additional problems.

i set up a test list,
and mail to the list gets stuck in
mailman/qfiles/in
it does not get sent from there.

any ideas what might be the reason?
which aspect of the configuration do i have to change?
any hints how i might be up and running soon?

Well, the error is telling you it can't find the mailman group.  Normally,
the install complains (and dies, IIRC) if the mailman user and group are not
present.

Try adding the mailman group as the error message suggests.

The apache cgi portion works fine
however an email to a new group gets the

an older version of mailman running on a Redhat 6.2
system with no problems.

[Mailman-Users] Install Problem

[Ian Scott]

I've just finished installing Mailman, and I am sure I followed instructions
to a 'T'.  I've reached the point where I created the first list, 'test' and
all seemed fine.  I received my email, and this is where things seem to go
strange for me.

The email asks me to go to http://lists.pairowoodies.com/admin/test or to
http://lists.pairowoodies.com/listinfo/test.

The problem is, neither of the admin or listinfo directories exist.  Perhaps
this is an Apache problem - I'm not really all that familiar with Apache,
but as a test, I did set up an index.html file in /home/mailman, and loaded
the file fine, so I know at least that part is correct.  Admittedly though,
I am not completely sure I did the Apache conf file properly:


ServerName lists.pairowoodies.com
Alias /pipermail/ /home/mailman/archives/public
ScriptAlias /mailman /home/mailman/cgi-bin


Is this correct?

The other thing I find odd is that there are no files in the cgi-bin
directory.  Shouldn't the install have put something in there?

I am running Linux Redhat 6.2, Sendmail, Python 2.0

[Mailman-Users] Install problem solved

I had been having difficulty with a new installation using python 2 and Mailman 2.0.5

Eventually backed off to python 1.5.2 and Mailman installed cleanly.

This should probably be in the FAQ

Ah... I was missing the ScriptAlias-part in Apache, and thought
the problem was somewhere else. Thanks!

As I understand it, /mailman/admin is a script or program which takes
the `/test' part as a parameter. Look for a file named `admin' or
`admin.cgi'.

I could be wrong. But I can visit:
URL: http://localhost/mailman/listinfo.cgi
and:
URL: http://localhost/mailman/listinfo.cgi/test

I get the appropriate pages.

[Mailman-Users] (install-problem) Missing listinfo directory

[Magnus Solvang]

I have installed Mailman (error-free), but when I create a list,
I get a confirmation mail which points to directories that
doesn't exist:

  You can configure your mailing list at the following web page:

http://[my_host]/mailman/admin/test

  The web page for users of your mailing list is:

http://[my_host]/mailman/listinfo/test

I have no listinfo or admin-directories.
I read in the archives that the listinfo-directory should be
created by 'make install', but this has not happened. Where
can I configure this during installation? The only listinfo
I see is the listinfo.tmpl in /home/mailman/templates...
