Hi mailman developers,


First off; thanks for a wonderful package. We've been using Mailman for years to keep thousands of open source bioinformatics developers and users in touch with each other.

Now I've got a problem that seems really odd. I'm a little bit afraid that it may have been caused by some old cruft left over in our mailman dir which has been subjected to many mailman upgrade installs over the years.

The SMTP/mailman box is a Dec Alpha workstation running Redhat Linux 6.x with python 2.3.


The problem:


Since upgrading to Mailman 2.1 (problem persists with MM 2.1.1) all of our mailman list pages that point to the public list archives are broken.

The URL is presented as "<server>/pipermail/" instead of "<server>/pipermail/<mm-listname>/"

This prevents our web vistors from getting to our list archives as they are presented with a "you are not allowed to access /pipermail/" error each time.

We have not changed our templates at all. In fact I blew away the templates directory right before upgrading to 2.1.1. I've verified in the template HTML that the "MM-List-Name" etc. data seems to be in the right place.

Here are a couple of example pages with broken links to the public list archives:

http://bioperl.org/mailman/listinfo/bioperl-l
http://open-bio.org/mailman/listinfo/moby-l

The list name is obviously getting substituted into other parts of the page. It's just not getting appended to the end of "/pipermail/" in the URL for the public list archive.


Private archives work fine. I've taken one list and converted the archives from public->private and the resulting "listinfo" page then produces a perfect link to the private archive.



Any hints? Has anyone seen this before?



Regards, Chris
