Mailman REST API not available. Please start Mailman core.

Okay, so I got the webservice of Mailman3 up and running, but when I go to mailman3/postorius/lists/, I get the following error: Something went wrong Mailman REST API not available. Please start Mailman core. When I logged in to the admin user, it threw a server 500 error, but I could refresh and see myself logged in. If I try to go to lists or mailman settings, however, I get the error above.

Re: mail stuck in "out" queue

So our mailman got stuck again, but I did follow your advise.

SIGINT killed the process allright, but it didn't auto-respawn. I ended up spawning it with: /usr/local/bin/python /usr/local/bin/runner --runner=out:0:1 -C /etc/mailman.cfg but soon realized it doesn't go to background nicely so I've nohup'ed it in the end. but it did solve my problem. -- Sr System and DevOps Engineer SoM IRT

Apache Conf
by Guiseppin Thomas 26 Jul '22

26 Jul '22

Hi, Currently, I use a nginx configuration for mailman. It's work perfectly. I tried to do the same with Apache, but the statics files are not delivered (404). Basically, it's the same configuration: /server { listen 80; server_name mailing.ddd.fr; access_log /var/log/nginx/mailing.access.log; error_log /var/log/nginx/mailing.error.log; location /static/ { alias /opt/mailman/static/; expires 30d; } proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; location / { proxy_pass http://localhost:8000; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; } } <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName mailing.ddd.fr ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/mailing.error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/mailing.access.log combined <Location /static/> Alias "/opt/mailman/static/" </Location> <Location /> ProxyPass http://localhost:8000/ ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:8000/ ProxyPreserveHost On </Location> </VirtualHost>/ I missed something ? Thanks.

Walk-thru for Ubuntu Bionic Mailman 3 Full setup
by kelly.close＠lrewater.com 09 Jul '22

09 Jul '22

I hope this is helpful to the Ubuntu folks out there. Once some critical small things were figured out, turns out it's pretty easy to get Mailman 3 running successfully under Ubuntu 18.04. The linked google doc includes my own walkthru, which includes using a cloud server image for Ubuntu 18.04 and a LAMP setup with Apache 2 and PHP, as well as Python and PostgreSQL, and the mailman3-full package that comes with that Ubuntu distribution. The walk-thru uses Postfix for mail and PostgreSQL for the back end database. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xIcSsoNFp2nHi7r4eQys00s9a0k2sHhu1V5Plan… If you use this and see needed corrections or additions, please let me know! ~Kelly

by Jim Ward 18 May '22

18 May '22

Mailman2 allowed me to list my members and modify a number of their attributes (display_name, etc) Postorius is a beautiful interface BUT I am evidently not finding how to manage my members to the extent that I could in Mailman2 Am I missing something?

ARC
by David Krantz 20 Mar '22

20 Mar '22

Hi all, Is the documentation correct that ARC should be as simple to configure in mailman 3 as to add the private DKIM key and restarting mailman? (https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/handlers/docs/arc_sign…) I've tried that without finding any effect in my so far limited tests. I have not found anything in logs although I might have missed looking in one. Are there any known limitations? I have previously a working DKIM signature on outgoing mail as well as correctly set up SPF in DNS and SPF-checking on received mail. The verification on incoming mail adds a few headers but I do not think that that should be an issue, neither would the DKIM signing change anything should mailman add new headers. I now run Mailman 3.2.3 (La Villa Strangiato) on Python 3.7.4. Cheers // David

list footer questions
by Mohsen Masoudfar 14 Mar '22

14 Mar '22

Hi, This seems to me like basic simple questions, I have tried FAQ and other resources, with not much success. I have two questions: 1. When I send an email to a list, in gmail and yahoo I see the following text with the links at the end of the email body: _______________________________________________ Testlist_dmark1 mailing list - listname(a)domain.tlb<mailto:testlist_dmark1@newlistserv.aaas.org> To unsubscribe send an email to listname-leave(a)domain.tlb In<mailto:listname-leave@domain.tlb%0b%0bIn> outlook this is added as an attachment in the form of a TEXT file, when you open it, you see the same text. Question: Is there a way to change this, that it looks in outlook the same way as it appears in gmail/yahoo? I know MS does it own stuff sometime and we have no impact on that, but I was thinking maybe we might change the footer in a way that outlooks sees that as part of email body. 2. How may I change the format and the text in footer? I was expecting it under list > setting, in postorius, but I could not find it.

Time Zone Problem In Postorius
by Brian Carpenter 13 Jan '22

13 Jan '22

I have the server TZ set to EST. I have the TZ for Postfix set to EST. I have the following set in my settings_local.py file: TIME_ZONE = 'America/New_York' USE_TZ = True However messages showing up in the pending moderation queue box shows UTC date. I am seeing this behavior in Affinity as well so I figured it is either a Mailman core setting or perhaps database? Can anyone shed light on that? Brian

Postorius & multi domain
by Gelpi Andrea 06 Jan '22

06 Jan '22

Hi, on a fresh debian 10 (mail server) I added mailman3 with: apt-get install mailman3-full dpkg-reconfigure mailman3 dpkg-reconfigure mailman3-web The server name is webserver-A Then I log in in webserver-A/mailman3 as a superuser I created a domain for webserver-A and domain-A The I created a list-A Then I created a second domain for webserver-B and domain-B Then I added to apache config a virtual host for webserver-B I log in webserver-B as the some superuser of webserver-A and I created a list-B But when I list the lists I can see both under webserver-A and webserver-B. The some problem with archiving hyperkitty. I search internet for a while and I discovered that using FILTER_VHOST = True seems to solve the problem. >From posotrius config page: FILTER_VHOST Filter the list of available lists in Postorius and Hyperkitty depending on the domain they are being currently served from. Mailman 3 supports multiple domains in a single installation. But it doesn't work. I got err 500 form apache. Were can I find an explanation or a how to configure the system to have 2 webserver with different domains working on the some server as it was with mailman 2? P.S.: I upgrade postorius to V. 1.3.2 and djando V 2.2.12 using the packages in testing distribution. The debian 10 official postorius package is too old (1.2.24) and does not support FILTER_VHOST Thanks in advance - -- Gelpi ing.
