[Mailman-Users] setting up mailman

[Mike Wharton]

Hi Mark,

Thanks for all your help. 

I have tried to the best of my ability (which is clearly not good enough) to
get this going... I have read until my eyes hurt and tried all the things
mentioned - even uninstalled and reinstalled several times. However, without
success.

It is obvious that my skill level or understanding of how mailman works (and
in fact how apache works) is too restricted. 

I surrender. :-)

Mike

This is mentioned in the 'other' FAQ <http://www.list.org/faq.html>

There is also a lot of discussion of this in the archives of this list.
See for example the entire thread beginning at
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2004-August/038828.html>

The wrapper (cgi-bin/listinfo) is being found, but most likely, there is
some kind of permissions error that prevents access to the wrapper.
Have you run bin/check_perms on your installation?

It could also be a group mismatch error as I mentioned previously, but I
don't think this results in "Premature end of script headers".

If you are running SELinux, there could be an issue there, although the
reported manifestations don't seem to affect wrapper access. See
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2005-July/045865.html>
