[Mailman-Users] config.pck get changed back from correct values...

[john espiro]

OK - cgi-bin folder has the SETGID bit set correctly.

The only thign I need to do to make it work, is to set the config.pck file to webadmin:mailman, otherwise I get the following in the error log:
   admin(17440): IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/mailman/lists/MYLIST/config.pck'
BUT Apache is running with suexec.

Is there a way to get mailman to work with Apache suexec?

John

matters in a properly configured Mailman installation.

If the files in cgi-bin have permissions as above, and the
subdirectories of lists/ have group and permissions like

[mark at sbh16 ~]$ ls -l lists/
total 28
drwxrwsr-x 3 root   mailman 4096 Jan 29 03:30 century-announce
drwxrwsr-x 2 root   mailman 4096 Jan 29 03:30 gpc-century

then the web interface should work.

Are you running Apache with suEXEC? If so, you will probably have
issues because the suEXEC security strategy is in conflict with
Mailman's security strategy.
