[Mailman-Users] Problem running Mailman on my Debian webserver
Hello, i installed Mailman on my webserver with apt-get install mailman Everything works fine, i'm able to create new lists and so on. My problem is that i'm not able to get access zu the directory over the web. For example i create a list testlist, then i get a mail with links to listinfo and to the webconfiguration, but when i try to visit this links i get a 404 from my server. When i use lynx directly on my server when i'm logged in over ssh, everything is ok ... in short: this works: http://localhost/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/testlist but not this: http://mydomain.tld/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/testlist firstly the link in the mail was also with localhost but then i changed mm_cfg.py What did i forget or what is wrong? It would be very nice if someone could help me.
