[Mailman-Users] installing..PLEASE help

2005-03-14 Thread Tamara Yoggev 
Hi there,

I've just installed mailman on a Linux server, and I'm having a few problems, 
some which may be related. Well here goes:

1. I'm using sendmail as my mailing system. I went through the tutorial , and 
tried to
create the sendmail.cf file from the sample file in ../mailman../contrib. I 
only changed
a few lines related to my host etc. bit when I ran the m4 and then restarted 
sendmail
I got a lot of errors, Here is a snip:
(and BTW, all the files that are referred as 'No such file or directory' DO 
exist in /etc/mail where all  my sendmail configuration is done )

[EMAIL PROTECTED] mail]# make start
service sendmail start
Starting sendmail: 451 4.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 7: fileclass: cannot

2. I've successfully created a few lists via the command line, but when I try 
to create a list on the web, I get this message:
   Error: you are not authorized to create new mailing lists.
   I'm using my site password (which I know I created), which is the same as 
list administrator password for the bottom field, and
  yes, I've recreated the password and tries creating the list several times. I 
know I have'nt misspelled anything.

3. When I try to view the list properties on the web, for instance: If I 
created a list called 'test', and I go to www.dom.ain\mailman\admin\testI get a 
message: No such list: test. (and it does exist when I run the list_lists 
command, it's there!)

I'd really appreciate if there is anyone out there who could help me.

well, waiting...
Tamara

	This is supposed to be "FEATURE(local_procmail)".  Somehow, the 
leading "FE" appears to have been left off, and this has almost 
certainly caused everything else to be thrown out of what.  If you 
correct the use of "ATURE" with "FEATURE" and re-try, you'll have a 
better chance of getting that to work.

	Of course, these changes need to be made in a file like 
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc, and then you use m4 to "compile" that into the 
corresponding /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.  If you did this directly in 
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf, then that would be your other problem.

	Not sure what to tell you.  This error should only be issued when 
you're using an incorrect site password, as generated by mmsitepass.

What's showing up in your logs?

	You need to use forward slashes, not backslashes.  You also need 
to avoid the use of the vertical pipe character.

	However, until you can get problems #1 and #2 corrected, I 
wouldn't be surprised that you'd have additional problems like this. 
Go back and get #1 and #2 fixed, and that may very well fix #3 as 
well.

All files are already at /etc/mail so there is no need to 'install new
sendmail.cf file'.
Appriciate any further help...
