[Mailman-Users] 403 forbidden on public archives
I am really lost as to why I have some archives which are public working fine but I one some of my lists if I make them public I receive the following: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /pipermail/listname/ on this server. I have read the discussion archives and have not found a solution to this. I am running Mailman 2.1.7.

Of course, you can do anything if you're willing to hack the code, but short of that, all you can do is eliminate the entire Membership Management... section including the Membership List from the admin interface. I don't want to do that. I do want the list admin to be able send out invites, for example. I think I will just have to either leave things as they are or modify the code. Probably the easiest modification would simply be to remove the subscribe option from the mass subscription page. Of course someone could work around that by sending a properly crafted HTTP POST, but those aren't the sorts of list-admins I'm worried about. -j -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp

You need to have the above in a place where it applies globally, or you need to have it in each VirtualHost section that has Mailman lists. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

[Mailman-Users] problem updating mailman in Plesk from 2.15 to 2.19
Can anyone assist with resolving this problem for me? Need to know about updating Mailman in Plesk from 2.15 to 2.19 I received the following response from Support at tecktonic who tried to update Mailman for me: I worked on this for quite a bit yesterday and came to the conclusion today after talking with my senior that it runs the risk of breaking plesk by forcing an install. Also, there are currently no mailman 2.1.9 releases for the current distro you are running, CentOS 4.5. The release that I had been looking at in plesk was for CentOS 5. If one is released it can be upgraded easily without fear of breaking anything. This, however, is not the case at the moment. Thank you.

[Mailman-Users] Gnu Autotools: Mailman
My software uses Mailman. I am using GNU autotools to bundle my software for distribution. During ./configure I want to check if mailman is installed and capture the path and version in some variables. What rules should I define in configure.ac ? Look for mailmanctl using AC_CHECK_PROGS ?

This is more an autoconf question than a Mailman question, but ... I don't know how you can do this in general, since on a given system, Mailman can be installed anywhere and there is no guarantee or even likelyhood that Mailman's bin/ directory is in the user's path. Also, there is no guarantee that the Mailman userid is 'mailman'. If you can find the Mailman installation, version information is in the file Mailman/Version.py. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

On 8/23/07, Mervyn Kahn wrote: If one is released it can be upgraded easily without fear of breaking anything. This, however, is not the case at the moment. I've worked at a project where they were using Plesk, and after a great deal of customization work by the hosting facility staff, they were able to work out a way to upgrade the system. What they ended up doing was a from-source (not binary package) install of the appropriate recent version of Python for the updated version of Mailman, but in a separate non-standard location. This way, you don't step on any programs or processes that are built-in to the system that need the old version of Python, but you can tell other programs where they can get the more up-to-date version. Then they did a from-source (not binary package) install of the Mailman code, again in a non-standard location, and told it where to find the non-standard location for the more recent version of Python they had installed. They then worked to integrate the new version of Mailman into the Plesk package, changing calling paths in the appropriate programs, using symlinks to change locations in binary programs that could not be edited, etc My understanding is that, in the end, they were able to get most of the standard Plesk stuff working with the updated version of Mailman, but that some of what we consider to be Mailman-standard stuff was broken. They didn't care, since they had their Plesk integration. Oh, and since they needed to do the same sort of thing for various other packages on the system, and each one was dependant on a different version of Python, they ended up with about four or five versions of Python installed in various different locations. Not fun. But if you know what you're doing and you can handle doing installs direct from the original source code as opposed to keyboard monkeys who can't deal with anything that doesn't come in a pre-digested binary package, then you should be able to get where you want to be. Just don't try to do this at Rackspace, 11, or any of those other lowest-common-denominator hosting facilities. -- Brad Knowles [EMAIL PROTECTED], Consultant Author LinkedIn Profile: http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu Slides from Invited Talks: http://tinyurl.com/tj6q4 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
