Hello-
This is a fairly simple question I believe... I'm doing multiple installs of Mailman on FreeBSD-4.7. It is recommended by the documentation and list users that when doing virtual hosting each host have a separate install. However I have not got past installing one instance successfully yet. Currently I am wrestling with a 500-Internal Server Error when trying to access the Mailman web interface.
I am pretty sure what I have to do is set the gid for the cgi user, which I attempted to do but it seems that it didn't take. The following is what i used to install.
[input]
make PREFIX=/usr/local MM_DIR=mailman-fbrpgh.org CGI_GID=vusers CONFIGURE_ARGS+= \
--with-urlhost=fbrpgh.org \
--with-mailhost=fbrpgh.org \
install clean
[/input]
This is my latest command entry, I have also tried using double-quotes around the CONFIGURE_ARGS value, but it wouldn't take either. There must be something syntactically I am missing because I am fairly sure the arguments are correct. It doesn't seem like the CGI_GID variable worked either. I believe it stuck as the default: www. Also, I know the arguments did not go through because post-install I look at <prefix>/Mailman/Defaults.py and found different different values than what I specified for DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST and DEFAULT_URL_HOST. Not a big deal because I know I can change them in mm_cfg.py, but I would still like to know the problem for future reference and other installs.
Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? Or recommendations?
