Hello list, using mailman3 as of current gitlab master with db-backend postgresql 14.5, I get the following error whenever a message is handed over to hyperkitty for archiving: Oct 19 11:43:00 2022 (2164807) HyperKitty failure on https://listserv.foo.bar/archives/api/mailman/archive: {"error": "'Thread' instance needs to have a primary key value before this relationship can be used."} (400) Oct 19 11:43:00 2022 (2164807) Could not archive the message with id <kcEE.5Fsdt1DFSK2fk5foEoTfkw.gCYcK5/j2AE@root> Oct 19 11:43:00 2022 (2164807) archiving failed, re-queuing (mailing-list test-list.foo.bar, message <kcEE.5Fsdt1DFSK2fk5foEoTfkw.gCYcK5/j2AE@root>) Oct 19 11:43:00 2022 (2164807) Exception in the HyperKitty archiver: {"error": "'Thread' instance needs to have a primary key value before this relationship can be used."} Oct 19 11:43:00 2022 (2164807) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/mailman_hyperkitty/__init__.py", line 158, in _archive_message url = self._send_message(mlist, msg) File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/mailman_hyperkitty/__init__.py", line 228, in _send_message raise ValueError(result.text) ValueError: {"error": "'Thread' instance needs to have a primary key value before this relationship can be used."} I already re-created the db, but this doesn't solve the issue. Sounds like db-definitions for model "Thread" are incomplete, but I can't identify the underlying db-objects. Thanks for any input, Armin. -- Aegaeon technologies GmbH phone: +49.941.8107344 fax: +49.941.8107356 Legal disclaimer: http://aegaeon.de/disclaimer/email_all_int.txt

How to enable VERP?
by Andy Smith 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

Hi, I'm a little confused as to how to enable VERP. mailman3 Debian package, version 3.3.3-1, using Exim 4 MTA. In /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg I added: [mailman] … verp_delivery_interval: 1 verp_probes: yes and restarted mailman3.service. The list's "Alter Messages / Personalize" setting is "Individual" (but I tried "Full" as well and saw no difference in VERP behaviour). I can see the MTA is doing an individual delivery for each recipient, and the list's custom footer tells the recipient which address they are subscribed under, so I know that part is working. With VERP enabled I was expecting the Return-Path header in the delivered list mail to include a cookie to identify the individual subscriber, but instead it is "listname-bounces(a)example.com" like always. In mailman.cfg my MTA-related settings are: [mta] incoming: mailman.mta.exim4.LMTP outgoing: mailman.mta.deliver.deliver smtp_host: localhost smtp_port: 25 configuration: python:mailman.config.exim4 And the Exim configuration itself has ther macros, router and transport files from the "Exim" section of here: https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/config-core.html#configuring-mta edited only for correct paths. That's been working for months for delivering list email in and out, but I'm just now trying to enable VERP and it's not happening. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks, Andy

Mailman 3 Hyperkitty indexes not being built
by tom＠gather.coop 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

My config looks like this: HAYSTACK_CONNECTIONS = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'haystack.backends.whoosh_backend.WhooshEngine', 'PATH': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "fulltext_index"), ... I have whoosh 2.7.4 installed. But my fulltext_index directory contains only one file, _MAIN_0.toc, which hasn't been updated in two years. What could be going on here? Presumably Hyperkitty should be indexing new messages as they are archived. I could run update_index to fix the index now but then it would just go out of date again. Also asked on SO: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74055901/mailman-3-hyperkitty-indexes-n… Thank you!

URL-lines in templates get folded
by Frank Steinberg 18 Oct '22

18 Oct '22

Hi, I’ve added links to some templates to give owners and moderators shortcuts to the postorius UI for moderation tasks, e.g., I’ve added https://lists.xxx.de/postorius/lists/$list_id/held_messages <https://lists.xxx.de/postorius/lists/$list_id/held_messages> Unfortunately those lines seem to exceed a certain limit and get folded, so that they appear as, e.g. https://lists.xxx.de/postorius/lists/$list_id/held_ <https://lists.xxx.de/postorius/lists/$list_id/held_> messages (or similar) and are not directly useful. Do you have any suggestion for this situation?

Upgrading packages
by Eggert Ehmke 13 Oct '22

13 Oct '22

Hello Mark & all, I have the venv installation on my Debian 11 system running. I followed your suggestion to upgrade all packages. When upgrading hyperkitty by this command: pip install --upgrade git+https://gitlab.com/mailman/hyperkitty@master I noticed that mistune-2.0.0rc1 was upgraded to mistune-2.0.4. All packages were upgraded fine. I applied the patch to venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/hyperkitty/lib/renderer.py to change the mistune import line. When I run now mailman-web migrate I get: *CommandError: Conflicting migrations detected; multiple leaf nodes in the migration graph: (0017_auto_20220628_1132, 0018_alter_emailtemplate_language in postorius).* *To fix them run 'python manage.py makemigrations --merge'* However, when I run the suggested command as: $ python ./venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/mailman_web/manage.py makemigrations -- merge No conflicts detected to merge. Can I just ignore this behavior? At the moment, I don't dare to carry out these steps on my production system. Would be nice to shed some light on this. Eggert

Debian 11 mailman3 installation question
by William Oliver 13 Oct '22

13 Oct '22

I have had an installation of mailman3 running for a year or so with no problems. This was a manual installation. I ended up having to change machines, so I decided to install using the debian 11 package. It seems to have gone well except.... when I restart mailman3 service, I get the following fail and error message: oot@emergenis:/etc/nginx/sites-enabled# systemctl restart mailman3 Job for mailman3.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status mailman3.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. root@emergenis:/etc/nginx/sites-enabled# systemctl status mailman3 ● mailman3.service - Mailman3 server Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/mailman3.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Tue 2022-10-11 15:09:45 EDT; 8s ago Docs: man:mailman(1) https://mailman.readthedocs.io/ Process: 1056 ExecStart=/usr/bin/mailman -C /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg start --force (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) CPU: 9.193s Oct 11 15:09:43 emergenis.com mailman3[1056]: File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/commands/cli_control.py", line 109, in start Oct 11 15:09:43 emergenis.com mailman3[1056]: call_name(config.mta.incoming).regenerate() Oct 11 15:09:43 emergenis.com mailman3[1056]: File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/mta/postfix.py", line 133, in regenerate Oct 11 15:09:43 emergenis.com mailman3[1056]: raise RuntimeError(NL.join(errors)) Oct 11 15:09:43 emergenis.com mailman3[1056]: RuntimeError: command failure: /usr/sbin/postmap /var/lib/mailman3/data/postfix_lmtp, 1, Operation not permitted Oct 11 15:09:43 emergenis.com mailman3[1056]: command failure: /usr/sbin/postmap /var/lib/mailman3/data/postfix_domains, 1, Operation not permitted Oct 11 15:09:45 emergenis.com systemd[1]: mailman3.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE Oct 11 15:09:45 emergenis.com systemd[1]: mailman3.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

I assume there's some posfix config I haven't done right, but I am clueless as to what it is. Thanks in advance for any pointers. billo

Default setting for Delivery status
by Mark Dale 12 Oct '22

12 Oct '22

Hi, Where and how do I set the default setting of "Delivery status" to be "Enabled". I'm not seeing any clues in mailman3-web/settings.py At the moment, a new subscriber is neither "Enabled" or "Disabled". Thanks, Mark
