[Mailman-Users] Not Authorized

Hello,

I have just installed Mailman on CentOS4. Everything seems to be fine
until I try to set up a new list. I have searched the archives and the
general consensus is that when you receive a "You are not authorized to
create a new list" error, it means that you are not entering the
sitewidepass correctly or the List Creator's password correctly. I can
assure you that I am entering these both correctly and have tried these
many times and have re-created both passwords to be sure. So I am
wondering if anyone can shed some light on this?

As an aside, we did try to install Mailman using an RPM file but the web
server does not run under apache so we uninstalled Mailman and
reinstalled from source. I am wondering if the previous install of
Mailman might be affecting things.

All help is appreciated as I have a client anxiously awaiting use of
Mailman.

Cheers

Dave
