[Mailman-Users] htdig configuration question - CGI not working

[Sruli Shaffren]

Hi.  I've solved this.  I seemed to have had two copies of the CGI programs,
one in /usr/share/mailman and the other in /var/www/mailman - I guess one
was from a botched install.  Once I made sure mmsearch and htdig were in the
right place, all was well.  I must have done the htdig configure with the
wrong directory.

Thanks for your help,

Does this mean you have installed patches 444879 and 444884?

The various patched makefile.in files when configured by configure and run
via 'make install' should add htdig and mmsearch wrappers to the cgi-bin
directory in your mailman installation. In addition, the patches should add
links to the archives of the form

http://www.my_list_domain.com/mailman/mmsearch/mylistname

not

http://www.my_list_domain.com/mailman/htsearch/mylistname

Have you modified the patches in any way? In particular, have you replaced
'mmsearch' with 'htsearch' anywhere?
