Unable to download attachments from HyperKitty
by Derek Lambert June 24, 2019

June 24, 2019

I’m having an issue downloading attachments from HyperKitty. The download begins as expected, but never progresses. Eventually it times out. I imagine the browser is expecting data matching the content-length header, but never receives it. Inspecting the contents of the download file reveals (address varies): <memory at 0x7f148fcb9588> I’ve been able to work around the issue with the following patch: --- env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/hyperkitty/models/email.py.orig 2018-12-06 21:38:39.544448735 +0000 +++ env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/hyperkitty/models/email.py 2018-12-06 23:01:39.923239421 +0000 @@ -309,7 +309,7 @@ def get_content(self): folder = self._get_folder() if folder is None: - return self.content + return self.content.tobytes() filepath = os.path.join(folder, str(self.counter)) if not os.path.exists(filepath): logger.error("Could not find local attachment %s for email %s", I haven't been able to replicate the issue with the HyperKitty tests, presumably the issue is somewhere in the Django <-> uwsgi <-> nginx stack. My configs are based on mailman-suite and maxking/docker-mailman. I've tried stripping out all the performance tweaks from my uwsgi and nginx configs, but no change. Versions: HyperKitty 1.2.1 Postorius 1.2.3 Django 2.1.7 nginx 1.14.1 uwsgi 2.0.18 Python 3.7.2 Has anyone come across this before? Derek Lambert

What process handles the sending of the mail out to subscribers? My new installation suddenly stopped sending. Apologies for so many newbie questions. Andrew

How to download attachments from hyperkitty
by andrew.bernard＠gmail.com June 22, 2019

June 22, 2019

Not working - download just waits forever after a few bytes in the browser. Could it be that you have to set hyperkitty to store attachments in the filesystem, and configure uwsgi to serve them as static files? Is that what the hyperkitty setting HYPERKITYY_ATTACHMENT_FOLDER is for? If this is so, can anybody show the fragment of uwsgi configuration required? Andrew

change preferred language of list
by mailman3＠malevil.cc June 22, 2019

June 22, 2019

hey, I am not very experienced with the mailman shell and configuration. I configured mailman using the mailman.cnf and I know that I can use "mailman conf" to get all the parameters. But now I would like to change the preferred language of a list. Because despite I set [mailman] default_language: de even new lists will still have "en" as preferred language. I checked this just by reading the $language variable in a list template. How can I change the list parameters and how can I make mailman to use the german language files? I found the files, so I know they exist, but still need to make mailman use them...

Is there a simple possibility to join a mailinglist besider writing a mail to list-join(a)example.com? I know you can register and then join a list, but thats only possible for public lists and I would like to have such a very simple webform for a specific list where you just enter your email address and then get the confirmation mail. I guess there was something like this with mailman2

Please help - Held message is crashing mailman.
by Alex King June 21, 2019

June 21, 2019

Hi, I've used mailman a lot in the past, and decided to install mailman3 in a recent install. I'm unimpressed so far, it seems buggy. Running on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS from packages, mailman3 3.1.1-9, mailman3-web 0+20170523-14, python-django-postorius 1.1.2-3. After a few messages, I now can't go to the "Held Messages" in postorius, I get a 500 error. I tried to interact on the command line, but could not work out how. Reading https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/install.html and https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/commands/docs/shell.ht…, I tried: # mailman shell Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell >>> command = cli('mailman.commands.cli_withlist.shell') Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.6/code.py", line 91, in runcode exec(code, self.locals) File "<console>", line 1, in <module> NameError: name 'cli' is not defined I did a lot of reading of the manual and googled, but I have no idea where the cli object is supposed to come from.....? The documentation is confusing. Anyway, after some trial and error, i found: # mailman shell Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell >>> list_manager = getUtility(IListManager) >>> m=list_manager.get("committee(a)[redacted].org") >>> from mailman.interfaces.requests import IListRequests >>> requests = IListRequests(m) >>> [x for x in requests.held_requests][0].id 8 >>> requests.get_request(8) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.6/code.py", line 91, in runcode exec(code, self.locals) File "<console>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/database/transaction.py", line 85, in wrapper return function(args[0], config.db.store, *args[1:], **kws) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/model/requests.py", line 120, in get_request result.data_hash, expunge=False) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/database/transaction.py", line 85, in wrapper return function(args[0], config.db.store, *args[1:], **kws) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/model/pending.py", line 138, in confirm value = json.loads(keyvalue.value) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/json/__init__.py", line 354, in loads return _default_decoder.decode(s) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/json/decoder.py", line 339, in decode obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end()) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/json/decoder.py", line 355, in raw_decode obj, end = self.scan_once(s, idx) json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Unterminated string starting at: line 1 column 1 (char 0) It seems something was written out to disk that can't be read in for some reason (assuming a json object on disk?) How do I debug this further? How do I find the json being decoded? Any help would be appreciated. (I found mailman2 just worked, I was happy with that.) (My colleague posted a bug about this I believe but I don't have the link to that.) Thanks, Alex

mass invitation
by mailman3＠malevil.cc June 20, 2019

in postorius there is just the option to make a mass subscription, in mailman2 there was also the possibility to just invite users, so they need to click a link when they really want to join the list. Is this also available in mailman3/postorius?

Importing mbox files into hyperkitty since date
by andrew.bernard＠gmail.com June 20, 2019

June 20, 2019

What is the syntax for the data in the --since argument to hyperkitty_import> --since SINCE SINCE is not very informative. :-) Guessing, using '1/1/1970' does not seem to achieve anything, and gives no error.

Hyperkitty Archives - Sidebar years/months
by Enrique Terrazas June 20, 2019

June 20, 2019

Hello, I’m going through importing archives from mm2 to mm3. One of the lists I’ve imported has messages going back to 11/2013. I was able to successfully import the lists settings using: mailman import21 lists(a)domain.com<mailto:lists@domain.com> /path/to/list/config.pck This successfully imported lists owners, moderators, subscribers, & settings. I then imported the messages with the following command: python /path/to/manage.py hyperkitty_import -l list(a)domain.com<mailto:list@domain.com> /path/to/list.mbox —since 10/01/2013 I used that date because it is older than the first message sent to the list: 11/13/2013 And followed that up with the update index command: python /path/to/manage.py update_index_one_list list(a)domain.com<mailto:list@domain.com> This successfully imported all the messages from 11/13/2013 through 09/30/2018. Here is where I’m facing two issues: * Messages from October 2018 were not imported * The sidebar only shows the year 2018. Fdasfds If I modify the URL to go to https://my.domain.org/hyperkitty/list/list@domain.com/2013/11 the archived emails show up fine. October 2018 shows two test messages I’ve sent but not any of the messages from October 2018 that should have been imported. Is there something additional that needs to be done to show the previous years and months in the sidebar? Thanks, Enrique
