All of this says that your web server does not point to the same
mailman instance that Postfix points to and that you are accessing
from the command line.
Check the path in your Mailman ScriptAlias in your web server config.
Yes the ScriptAlias is pointing to /usr/lib/cgi-bin/. At that location I
see the mailman executables which correspond to the various web
functions, as expected. I searched for other instances of these same
executables using locate, and all I found was a location where three
executables with the same name (admin, confirm, and subscribe) at
/var/lib/mailman/scripts. I don't know if these locations are equivalent
or not.
These are the locations where the Ubuntu ppa installer placed them. I
realize this list is not the place to ask about Ubuntu-specific
installation, but I haven't received a reply on the Ubuntu forum so far.
I need to see where postfix is pointing. As I understand it, it's the
"mailman" entry in postfix's master.cf that determines this. There I
have the entry as specified in the mailman documentation:
mailman unix - n n - - pipe
flags=FR user=list argv=/usr/lib/mailman/bin/postfix-to-mailman.py
${nexthop} ${user}
Per man page for master(5) this is supposed to mean that executabe
'mailman' is present relative to the path specified by postfix param
queue_directory. The value of that variable (as determined by running
postconf queue_directory) is /var/spool/postfix. There is no executable
named 'mailman' at that location, so I'm not clear on how postfix is
invoking mailman on incoming mail, but that seems to be where the
problem lies.
