[Mailman-Users] mailman/gentoo/apache2, but going to web interface gives me 404 not found
Hi, I'm almost ashamed to ask this since it's probably the single most common error when setting up mailman. I have searched the archives but I haven't seen a case quite like mine; namely, with gentoo. The reason I wonder if this plays a role is that the gentoo install probably tried to do something, and perhaps got it wrong. Anyway, installation went smoothly following the gentoo+mailman howto (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_install_Gnu_Mailman) and I received the mail saying my default list mailman had been created and how to access it. However, visiting any of the pages mentioned there gave me a 404 - not found error. Searching the archives did turn up a suggestion, that I add to my apache2 config file a line: ScriptAlias /mailman /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin now accessing any of my mailman URLs give: 403 Forbidden: You don't have permission to access /mailman/admin/mailman on this server. but bin/check_perms -f says everything is ok. Any ideas?

Check both your Mailman and Apache error logs. It doesn't seem that you're even getting to the wrappers (/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/*), but if you are, it could be a group mismatch error - see http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showfile=faq06.016.htp Check the permissions on /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/. On my system, the directory and all its files are owner:group = root:mailman and the directory is rwxrwsr-x and the files are rwxr-sr-x. the setgid bits and mailman group are critical. Granted, check_perms should check this, but ?? It could also be a SELinux issue if that is applicable in your environment. -- Mark Sapiro [EMAIL PROTECTED] The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
