Hello,
Believe it or not, I am having trouble building mailman. I have done it
in the past with a previous version on a different machine. I made a
detailed log describing my individual steps.
FreeBSD 4.6
Postfix 1.1.11
Mailman 2.0.13
Step 1: Unpacked tar in /root/mailman-2.0.13/
Step 2: Added line in /etc/group/
mailman:*:1002:
Step 3: Added line in /etc/passwd
mailman:*:1002:1002:GNU Mailman:/home/mailman:/nonexistent
Step 4: Added line in /etc/master.passwd
mailman:*:1002:1002::0:0:GNU Mailman:/home/mailman:/nonexistent
Step 5: Decided that $prefix shall be /usr/local/mailman/
Step 6: Executed in csh,
#mkdir /usr/local/mailman/
Step 7: Executed in csh,
#chown mailman:mailman /usr/local/mailman/
Step 8: Verified Step 7
Step 9: Executed in csh,
#cd /usr/local/mailman/
Step 10: Executed in csh,
#chgrp mailman .
Step 11: Executed in csh,
#chmod a+rs,g+ws .
Step 12: Executed in csh,
#set MAILHOST=frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu
Step 13: Executed in csh,
#set WWWHOST=www.frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu
Step 14: Executed in csh,
#export MAILHOST WWWHOST
export: Command not found.
Step 15: Executed in csh,
# /root/mailman-2.0.13/configure --prefix=/usr/local/mailman/
--with-mail-gid=postfix --with-cgi-gid=nobody
Step 16: Returned data from configure:
<excerpt>
checking for default fully qualified host name... frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu
checking for default URL host component... frybread.stuorg.iastate.edu
</excerpt>
The big question: It doesn't seem to have listened to MAILHOST and
WWWHOST from steps 12-14.
Step 17: Executed in csh,
#cd /root/mailman-2.0.13/
Step 18: Executed in csh,
#make install
make: don't know how to make install. Stop
Step 19: Assuming Line 102 in INSTALL is wrong or misplaced. I will try
'make' first and then 'make install'
Step 20: Executed in csh,
#make
make: no target to make.
Step 21: Give up on install...
