You may have hit on the problem. I have no previous public archives. The
apache error logs show:
[Thu Apr 17 19:00:46 2003] [error] [client 192.168.1.10] script not found
or unable to stat: /usr/lib/mailman/cgi-bin/archives
When I look in the domain, I see no reference to FollowSymlinks. so I've
added "Options FollowSymLinks" to the virtual domain directory
information for domains that have mail lists as referenced in the FAQ at:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/1998-November/000150.html
But I still have an unresolved URL error message. Do I have to manually
create a pointer to the area where the archives are? It worked for
private. The Public is a directory parallel to the private. There must
be something more required in the Apache configuration?
