 Sounds like a good idea. How is this done? I presume you're not talking
 about the subscribers cookies in ~/.netscape/cookie. I see
 $PREFIX/Mailman/Cookie.py
 $PREFIX/Mailman/Handlers/CookHeaders.py
 Do these need to be modified or do they access some DBfile?

I was speaking of the cookies in the client machine.  So in Netscape's
cookie manager (Tools - Cookie Manager - Manage Stored Cookies, i think
netscape has one, I use mozilla), find the cookies for your domain and
delete them.

If netscape doesn't have a cookie manager, and you don't mind losing all
your cookies, just delete ~/.netscape/cookie

[Mailman-Users] authentication problem on upgrade

2003-02-24 Thread Dave Stern - Former Rocket Scientist 
I'm going from 2.0.13 to 2.1.1. The machine I want to first test it on
has no compiler so I copy the real mailman structures onto another machine,
(let's call it test.domain) have account, group, perms etc set up,

configure --prefix=/etc/mailman --build=test.domain \
  --host=test.domain

make install
copy resulting structure (/etc/mailman) onto new machine

edit /etc/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py and Defaults.py on test.domain to have
 the correct hostname and path

restart web server

I can get to the main page but it fails to authenticate me.
I even rerun mmsitepass on test.domain.   I presume it takes this
as I can create a new list.


Here's the error I get on the webpage when I try to authenticate and get into
the newly created list (or existing lists)
===
Bug in Mailman version 2.1.1

We're sorry, we hit a bug!

If you would like to help us identify the problem, please email a copy of this page to 
the webmaster for this site with a description of
what happened. Thanks!

Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File /etc/mailman/scripts/driver, line 87, in run_main

  File /etc/mailman/Mailman/Cgi/admin.py, line 82, in main

  File /etc/mailman/Mailman/SecurityManager.py, line 234, in MakeCookie
c = Cookie.SimpleCookie()
AttributeError: 'Mailman.Cookie' module has no attribute 'SimpleCookie'

Any ideas?

Thanks

Just an idea, see if that works.
