[Mailman-Users] Mailman admin page is blank.

If I go there I get a "Not Found" error, not a blank page.

See http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node10.html for information on
setting up your web server.

Actually,

I meant:

http://www.commoncents.net.au/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/test/

and I added

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/mailman /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/

And

<Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman>
Options ExecCGI
</Directory>

And its still blank.

The more normal thing would be

ScriptAlias /mailman/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/

for the Apache config and

http://www.commoncents.net.au/mailman/admin/test/

for the URL, but what you have should work.

I tried all of

http://www.commoncents.net.au/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/test
http://www.commoncents.net.au/cgi-bin/mailman/admin
http://www.commoncents.net.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/test
http://www.commoncents.net.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo

The second and fourth look 'normal' except that the admin page lists
'test' as a public list and the listinfo page says there are no public
lists.

As you note, the admin/test page is empty. The listinfo/test URL
produces a

Bug in Mailman version 2.0.11

We're sorry, we hit a bug!

page. I'm guessing you have group/permission problems. There should be
errors in your Mailman 'error' log now.

BTW, if as it seems this is a new installation, why are you installing
2.0.11 instead of 2.1.5 or 2.1.6 beta?

And note that if you do want the cgi-bin to be part of your URL
for some reason, make sure it is included in DEFAULT_URL in
your mm_cfg.py (which will be reflected in the web_page_url
value for each list).
I have to reiterate Mark's question... Are you *sure* you want
to install a 3+ year old version? 2.1.5 contains numerous
improvements. (And the 2.1.6beta contains fixes for some of
the known problems in 2.1.5.)

Thanks Jim & Mark,

I know it sounds like im some sicko with a Mailman 2.0 fetish..

Its just that I installed mailman using woody's apt-get install mailman.

Im just gonna scrap it and install the source from the python site.

Thanks for all your help guy's.

Rabbie.

Although I haven't tried, you can probably find backports of something in
the 2.1 series for your installation.

However, anything much later and you'll also need to find a backport of a
modern Python version.
