Hi Mark,

The "su - mailman" version works without any problems, e.g.

su - mailman
cd ~/domains/chuckie.co.uk/cgi-bin
./admin

Content-type: text/html

<head>
<title>Mailman CGI error!!!</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Mailman CGI error!!!</h1>
The Mailman CGI wrapper encountered a fatal error. This entry is being
stored in your syslog:
<pre>
Group mismatch error.  Mailman expected the CGI
wrapper script to be executed as group "apache", but
the system's web server executed the CGI script as
group "mailman".  Try tweaking the web server to run the
script as group "apache", or re-run configure,
providing the command line option `--with-cgi-gid=mailman'.</pre>


According to /etc/selinux/config:

SELINUX=disabled
SELINUXTYPE=targeted


Looking at the mailman source, I guess that somehow the execve() call is
failing but I'm not sure exactly where to start digging...


Many thanks,

Mark.
