Hello I'm installing Mailman 2.0.13 on a "Virtual Server". I have no real experience of the command line or Unix so getting this far is pretty good going!
I have got as far as creating the list "test" and received a mail from Mailman saying my new list is set up. I cannot however access the admin pages in that mail. >You can configure your mailing list at the following web page: > > http://mydomain1.tld/mailman/admin/test The FAQs suggest that 404 not found errors are down to not configuring the Apache httpd.conf file, but I do have the following lines ><VirtualHost mailman.mydomain1.tld> >ServerName mailman.mydomain1.tld >ServerAdmin mailman.mydomain1.tld >DocumentRoot /home/mailman >ScriptAlias /mailman/ /home/mailman/cgi-bin/ >Alias /pipermail/ /home/mailman/archives/public/ ></VirtualHost> My first query is whether I need the DNS updated to point mailman.mydomain1.tld to mydomain1.tld. (For example http:// www.mydomain1.tld reaches my web pages but http://mydomain1.tld takes you to my servers default domain (myserver.myhost.tld). I need a CNAME entry for mailman.mydomain1.tld perhaps? Next sending a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't work. The message is cought by my 'catch-all' mailbox although I have set "test- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailman" in the virtusertable. (And done gen- virtusertable) I don't really understand the URLs Mailman gives in the "Your new mailing list" message. I can see why it's <http://mydomain1.tld/mailman/listinfo/ test>. But thase pages don't exist on my server. Attempting to reach them via http://myserver.myhost.tld/mailman etc doen't work either. So as far as I can see this is either a DNS problem on my setup or I've missed something somewhere... Any clues or ideas welcome!
