How have the search indexes being used by htsearch when you run it by hand been built? Did you run nightly_htdig by hand? What form do the URLs of search hits in the response returned by htsearch take? However, I am not getting the search form at the top of the index.html page as is supposed to happen. So, as expected, I cannot search via the web interface. :( The trigger for this form to be added to a list's archive TOC page is a new message being sent to that particular list. And until nightly_htidg has been run (which can be done from the command lien as well as by cron) no per-list search indexes will be in existence. Are these criteria being met and yet still the form does not appear on a list's archive TOC page? The index.html file *IS* being updated, but nothing is getting added to it (no search form)...

Peter, It's a FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE box. All the necessary five processes are running for qmail: qmail-send, splogger, qmail-lspawn, qmail-rspawn, qmail-clean. The aliases are setup correctly, as follows: |preline /home/mailman/mail/wrapper post test in .qmail-test Yeha, I always see the mail in the admin page, but after I approve it, it doesn't go anywhere. And for some reason log/bounces notes all the members as bouncing, don't know why. I don't ever see any attempts to actually deliver the message in maillog. It has this kind of message Aug 07 11:57:20 2003 (16657) Test: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - 3 more allowed over 431385 secs for all the members of the test list. And the log/post always has Aug 07 11:57:20 2003 (16657) post to test from [EMAIL PROTECTED], size=141, 3 failures, notice the failures at the end. It always fails. I have not a single clue about whats going on. I tried about 10 reinstalls. I disabled sendmail totally. What changes do I need to make to Mailman when I change an MTA?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Public/private archives problem.
Richard; Thanks for your help in this. I am going to email you a link to my testlist, which you can log into as an administrator and see for yourself what the problem is. My server does not run CPanel, so I don't think that's an issue here. My server is sitting here next to my desk, so I have full control if you need any information. Best Regards Rob Quoting Richard Barrett [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Tony The questions I am asking are to elicit information that will distinguish between and identify whether there is a problem with (a) Mailman or (b) misconfiguration of Mailman or (c) third party modifications made to Mailman or (d) other aspects of the host system configuration such as the Apache server. You are complaining about links but I can interpret that in several ways: 1. whether the URL of concern is accepted and served by the Apache server when you think/prefer it should or should not be. 2. whether the URL of concern is found embedded in the HTML text of a web page generated by Mailman as either a static page or by a Mailman CGI script. 3. whether the URL of concern is found embedded in the HTML text of a web page generated by something other than Mailman as either a static page or as one delivered by a CGI script. I must have been having a stupid day as I was not entirely clear from either the referenced bug report or your initial post about which of these interpretations I should adopt. Now see further comments below. Richard On Monday, August 11, 2003, at 01:14 pm, Tony wrote: Hi Richard, Quoting Richard Barrett [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Rob's bug report, as with yours, lack precision in specifying exactly which Mailman generated pages have links on them which contain (in the HTML text), absolute URLs referring to the wrong hostname. See my comments below on the broadfer questions that need to be answered in order to attack the perceived problem. Sorry, I thought it was clear enough. I will elaborate. I do not work with it myself, but I believe that the CPanel virtual hosting support software, which your hosting provider may be using, does perform some trickery to help avoid conflicts between list names on different virtual hosts. If your hosting provider is using that and something related to it is misconfigured then this may be contributing to the problem. Correct. The list directory gets names listname_domain to avoid conflicts with any other similarly named lists. CPanel is what is being used in this case. This means that any other virtual host on the server can access the mail archives by providing the correct path name to the list. When you say if the archive is public, then the address is http://myhostingprovidersservername.com/pipermail/listname; what precisely do you mean? What I mean is that the link to the archives, and only this link, from what I can see, shows the hosting provider's server name and not the virtual domain for the client. Example: I have a list called test on clientdomain1. The path to the list and all the admin pages etc is http://clientdomain1/mailman/whatever/test_clientdomain1/ This list could also be accessed by another virtual domain on the same server as: http://clientdomain2/mailman/whatever/test_clientdomain1/ When the archives are set to public, the archive address is: http://clientdomain1/mailman/private/test_clientdomain1/ Did you mean the statement immediately above or are you just reflecting on the fact that a public list is still available through its private list URL? When the list archives are set to public, then the archive address is: http://hostingproviderservername/pipermail/test_clientdomain1/ I would expect this to read: http://clientdomain1/pipermail/test_clientdomain1/ or similar. This appears the same on both the main page for the list and in the admin interface. Just to confirm; do you mean the web pages returned by the URLs http://clientdomain1/mailman/listinfo/test_clientdomain1 and http://clientdomain1/mailman/admin/test_clientdomain1? I am now talking about plain vanilla, unmodified, MM 2.1.2 code. The GetBaseArchiveURL() function used to generate the links to both public and private list archives. Its operation is subtly different in two cases although both depend upon the values in the VIRTUAL_HOSTS dictionary which is conventionally constructed by calls to the add_virtualhosts() function in the MM configuration file mm_cfg.py. In the case of a public archive, the function does a lookup for the list's host_name attribute (visible/editable on the General Options page of the list) in an inversion of the VIRTUAL_HOSTS dictionary. The actual statement that forms the URL is: url = mm_cfg.PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL % { 'listname': self.internal_name(), 'hostname': inv.get(self.host_name, mm_cfg.DEFAULT_URL_HOST), } This works

Yes, these are the pages that report the archive location to br the hostingproviderservername address. I am now talking about plain vanilla, unmodified, MM 2.1.2 code. The GetBaseArchiveURL() function used to generate the links to both public and private list archives. Its operation is subtly different in two cases although both depend upon the values in the VIRTUAL_HOSTS dictionary which is conventionally constructed by calls to the add_virtualhosts() function in the MM configuration file mm_cfg.py. [] What is happening in the case of a private archive that the 'correct' host name is being returned? When generating a reference to a private archive the GetBaseArchiveURL() function uses a different list attribute called web_page_url. The standard MM 2.1.2 web creation scripts, both web and command line, set web_page_url and host_name in a compatible way. So too does the the fix_url script referred to by earlier posts on this subject. Is there a reason the two are different? If I am honest, it is not immediately obvious to me why the difference in computing the hostname used in private and public archive URLs. But with a properly configured vanilla Mailman installation, the results should be same in either case. What would happen if they were both the same? Unfortunately, I am not in a position to check out what is being done on the server, since I am merely a client and have bugger all access to the server :( But you could check the 'Host name this list prefers for email' option on the General Options page of one of your problem lists (3rd from last option with MM 2.1.2). Does this look to be correct? I would expect it to. As you say, it could be how CPanel have integrated mm, or it could be a configuration issue with how they set it up. There is fresh news. There is good news and there is bad news. The good news is that you are not alone. I have just fooled around with a demo CPanel facility of a web hosting supplier. Lo and behold the the links to the list archives - the /pipermail URLs - switch from the virtual host name to the base server host name; see: http://free-try-before-buy.com/mailman/listinfo/delist_free-try- before-buy.com and follow the list archive link. Lo and behold you get to: http://server.6np.net/pipermail/delist_free-try-before-buy.com/ although the 'desired' URL works OK: http://free-try-before-buy.com/pipermail/delist_free-try-before- buy.com/ The bad news is that this looks like a built in 'feature' of the current CPanel implementation. My guess is that the CPanel's own scripts are used by CPanel in place of the standard Mailman scripts to create new lists and that these scripts set the list web_page_url and host_name attributes directly but without adding any matching add_virtualhost() calls to mm_cfg.py to expand the VIRTUAL_HOSTS dictionary. This would not be a major surprise as the VIRTUAL_HOSTS dictionary stuff now in Mailman is a MM 2.1.x introduction and CPanel basic implementation predates it with MM 2.0.x. If I can find time I will look at the issue a bit harder but right now I cannot see any easy solution for you. Basically it looks to me like a rough edge on the CPanel implementation rather than a bug in Mailman. Can you suggest anywhere I can look (or point the hosting provider at)

Does line 757 (or thereabouts) of $prefix/Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py contain the following text: d[htsearch] = quick_maketext('TOC_htsearch.html', dict=h, This is the code that generates the form that is added to the html of the list's TOC page a few lines further on. If this line is missing then the patching has failed somehow. I just checked, and it is there. Is the TOC_htsearch.html file supposed to be in a particular location? It is in templates/en/ right now... Assuming you are using en as the list language and standard templates, can you take a look at the file $prefix/templates/en/archtoc.html line 16 should read: %(htsearch)s This is where the results of the quick_maketext() on TOC_htsearch.html, that is the search form, get inserted into the list TOC page. This line should have been inserted into archtoc.html by the htdig-2.1.2-0.4.patch One possibility is that you may be using site, host or list specific templates and you generated these from the standard installed templates before applying the mailman-htdig and kindred patches. If so then these will not have been/could not be patched by the htdig-2.1.2-0.4.patch. In this case you will have to take a look at the htdig-2.1.2-0.4.patch file for the template changes made by the patch and apply these by hand to your local variants of the templates. The patch file is a unified diff format and quite human legible. Let me know what you find out/conclude. I *believe* I followed the htdig docs to the letter, Do you mean the INSTALL.htdig-mm document in the Mailman build directory? Yup.. that, and the docs on the website. I swear it seems like I missed something simple (and stupid) here.. I even confirmed that the permissions on the directory and all files were set correctly (owner group, too!).

[Mailman-Users] Script Alternative to Radio Buttons?
We need a command line script alternative to the web page radio buttons, and we are willing to pay for it! We have ten mailman mailing lists that we use very effectively with our customers and internal staff. Every day, our Administrator has to go to the Pending Administrative Requests for mailing list ... to get rid of all the spam posts. Often there are fifty or so per mailing list, so 500 unwanted administrative pieces of mail. It takes a very long time (one or more hours per day) to click the discard radio button for each mail message per mailing list, and then finally click on the Submit All Data button. Our administrator would like to quickly skim the pending messages, see if there are any that are bonafide messages that should be posted to the mailing list, and then discard all the rest in one fell swoop. If someone could write us a script that we could run from the Red Hat Linux command line, we are willing to pay for the development and resubmit to the community. We would like to do something like this: linux prompt% discard pendingmsgs mailinglistone where discard is the command, pendingmsgs is an argument, and mailinglistone is the name of the mailing list to get the treatment. We use Mailman 2.1.2 and RedHat Linux 9.x. We compiled our own version of Mailman because the one that shipped with RedHat did not work right. Our network administrator who set this all up says he is too busy to write the script for us, so that is why we are asking for help from the community.

What do you get when you type: cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max 65000 cat /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max 4086 On one of my well-running RH 9 boxes, I'm on 7.1. I get: cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max 26208 I'm more than double that. Is more too many? cat /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max 4095 I'm very close to that. You can adjust these values by becoming root and typing in something like: echo 16384 /proc/sys/fs/file-max echo 2048 /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max Note: this is not a recommendation (well it is, but it's not *my* recommendation...) Both of which are well less than what I have. What would this do? BTW: I'm guessing that you are not running either NFS or NIS (NIS is a way of sharing user information amoung a lot of unix servers) Sounds right. I also guess that hda1 is your /boot and that hda3 is / Correct That indicates that your install is using one IDE drive. Right again. I hope your mail traffic is not too high! Not yet, but it will be in time as I move more lists. I am way over due for some upgrades and the box no longer covers what I need, so I'm looking to move to a new server. I'm thinking a two HD box running C-panel, and I'm looking to run a better MTA than sendmail. You might want to drop the Open Relay checks for a week and see if that makes a difference. I'm not sure, but Sendmail may be holding open the access.db file while it does these checks. Could be, but my lists are currently announcement lists that send at a low mail time. I once let the runaway process go for 15 minutes to see if it would clear, it did not. The open relay checks cut my mail volume substantially, and I suspect I'd hear from some customers if I stop them. Thanks for the help.

Re: [Mailman-Users] I can't get my mail list to work

I didn't find an option on the Control Panel for editing the etc/aliases or running 'newalises'. I tried making folders named etc/aliases and adding a text file named text.txt to that folder with the information below, but it did not work. newaliases needs to be run by your mail host. It's not a mailman function - it's dependent on the MTA. The mailing list test on hcmcnurses.org with password test was sucessfully created. To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your /etc/aliases (or equivalent) file by adding the following lines, and possibly running the `newaliases' program: ## test_hcmcnurses.org mailing list test_hcmcnurses.org: |/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman post test_hcmcnurses.org Something's quite broken since it's combining your list name with your host name. test_hcmcnurses.org isn't a valid DNS name. It looks like webmanix doesn't have mailman configured properly. If they're not going to help you with this, then you may need to find a different mailman host. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 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/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
