I think I may have sent this directly, but...
Mattias,
I had good luck installing mailman on El Capitan/Server 5 using MacPorts, as it
manages all the dependencies and integrates all the chron jobs and startup
stuff, but due to some legacy issues with the MacPorts configuration file, the
build appends the .cgi prefix in the URI construction. It, otherwise, works
fine. It avoided a lot of the issues you had in configuring it and, more
importantly, maintaining it.
If you want to get rid of the extension, download macports, refresh the build
index, then edit the macports mailman build file, replacing:
configure.args --with-cgi-ext=.cgi \
--with-cgi-gid=${cgigroup} \
with
configure.args --with-cgi-gid=${cgigroup} \
Thanks again to Marius Schamschula for that tip, as it drove me crazy.
