[Mailman-Users] Problems with mailman installation
I can't get mailman version (1:2.1.26-1ubuntu0.6) to run on an ubuntu 18.04 installation with apache2 running in chroot. I've done the same thing before, a long time ago and it worked perfectly back then. chroot directory is /home/www (I admit that it's strange to put it there, but the provided setup only has huge /home partition and small /) vhost configuration: ServerName lists.DOMAIN.TLD ServerAdmin webad...@domain.tld AssignUserID www-data www-data DocumentRoot /home/lists/httpdocs/site/ AllowOverride None Require all granted Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Require all granted AllowOverride all Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Require all granted # ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/mailman/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/ Alias /pipermail/ /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/ Alias /images/mailman/ /usr/share/images/mailman/ ScriptAlias /admin /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/admin ScriptAlias /admindb /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/admindb ScriptAlias /confirm /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/confirm ScriptAlias /create /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/create ScriptAlias /edithtml /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/edithtml ScriptAlias /listinfo /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo ScriptAlias /options /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/options ScriptAlias /private /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/private ScriptAlias /rmlist /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/rmlist ScriptAlias /roster /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/roster ScriptAlias /subscribe /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/subscribe ScriptAlias /mailman/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/ RedirectMatch ^/[/]*$ http://lists.DOMAIN.TLD/listinfo/ ErrorLog /home/www/home/lists/logs/error.log CustomLog /home/www/home/lists/logs/access.log combined Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/lists.DOMAIN.TLD/fullchain.pem SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/lists.DOMAIN.TLD/privkey.pem Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf Here is the significant part of the fstab file that provides the necessary directories in the chroot environment: /etc/mailman /home/www/etc/mailman none defaults,bind,ro /usr/lib/mailman /home/www/usr/lib/mailman none defaults,bind,ro /usr/share/mailman /home/www/usr/share/mailman none defaults,bind,ro /usr/share/images/mailman /home/www/usr/share/images/mailman none defaults,bind,ro /var/lib/mailman /home/www/var/lib/mailman none defaults,bind /var/log/mailman /home/www/var/log/mailman none defaults,bind /var/lock/mailman /home/www/var/lock/mailman none defaults,bind Result is: Mailman CGI error!!!

[Mailman-Users] mailman3-web is broken after deleting site "example.com"
Because I'm having trouble with setting up mailman2, I'm currently testing mailman3. After configuring the real domain names and deleting the site "example.com", nothing is working in the web frontend any more. Whatever I try to access I just get the same server error: "An error occurred while processing your request."

[Mailman-Users] Re: mailman3-web is broken after deleting site "example.com"
In the documentation there's no mention of deleting the example.com 😂 Maybe it's possible but I personally don't care. What I do is to go to Django admin webUI and create a new site, and a new mail domain. In postorius I can then add a domain that has a Mail Host and a Web Host. The later gives me a SITE_ID which I then pin into settings.py, restart services and then I can proceed to create lists. I learnt this the hard way. I don't know if it's documented at all. But that's just how MM3 works for me! BTW, MM2 still works as long as you can have Python2.7. But MM3 is better. Start over again and don't delete example.com!
