Where should mailman_web.urls be located, also in /etc/mailman3
or
rather in the venv of mailman_web in /opt/mailman...?

How did you install Mailman? If you followed
<https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html>, you

should have /etc/mailmasn3/settings.py which is similar to


<https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#initial-configuration>.

In particular, it should have near the beginning
```
from mailman_web.settings.base import *
from mailman_web.settings.mailman import *
```
The import from mailman_web.settings.base defines
```
ROOT_URLCONF = 'mailman_web.urls'
```
which points to mailman_web/urls.py in the venv's site-packages
directory.

In fact, my settings.py does contain these import lines:

import os
from mailman_web.settings.base import *
from mailman_web.settings.mailman import *

BASE_DIR = ('/var/lib/mailman3/web')

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

SECRET_KEY = '<MYSECRETKEY>'
DEBUG = False

#: Default list of admins who receive the emails from error logging.
ADMINS = ( ('Mailman Suite Admin', '[email protected]'),)

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['localhost', '127.0.0.1',]
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django_mailman3',
'postorius',
'hyperkitty',
# Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
'django.contrib.admin',

And I have the mailman_web/urls.py in the venv where mailman was
installed.

Copy the settings.py from
https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html and
customize it with your values at the right places.


Did that and changed a few value in that file.
But after restarting the service(s) the error is still there.
