after many, many iterations and googling left and right, we've finally made some progress on our email setup -- but mailman's web interface keeps generating absolute links off-site!
- debian (testing/unstable) - exim4-daemon-heavy (4.61-1 via apt-get) - mailman (2.1.7-2.1.8rc1-1 via apt-get) - vexim (downloaded & installed 2.0.1) all's well EXCEPT... within the web interface for mailman (http://site.name/cgi-bin/mailman/*) ALL admin links are absolute, and point to a DIFFERENT virtual host on the same server. it's all written in python, and from what i can tell the culprit is in ScriptURL inside Mailman/Utils.py: in particular, when viewing https://site.name/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/test to administer the TEST list, all links are absolute, pointing to http://other.site/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/test/* -- no https, and a different site. we added DEFAULT_HOST_NAME = 'site.name' DEFAULT_URL = 'https://site.name' to /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py (after seeing the comments in /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Default.py and confirming it in MailList.py) to no effect. [maybe the python files aren't being recompiled? timestamps indicate .pyc are being recompiled from the .py files.] we ran 'hostname site.name' to fix it in ram, and then restarted mailman, exim, and apache. no good. we reset /etc/hostname and rebooted the computer, no good. any ideas? -- will trillich "Their is five errers in this sentance." ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
