Start a new thread and Reply buttons don't work on web interface
by mcashdollar＠anl.gov Nov. 1, 2022

Nov. 1, 2022

Hi, I'm planning on upgrading some of our mailing lists from Mailman 2 to Mailman 3. I setup a test server to try Mailman 3. I notice that when I go to "Archives" in the web interface and choose "Start a new thread" or "Reply" to post a message on my test list, it says successful, but the message never shows up. Looking at the logs, I don't see any errors. I can see the HTTP POST in the log and it seems like everything works: [pid: 70249|app: 0|req: 41/93] 127.0.0.1 () {46 vars in 1223 bytes} [Tue Nov 1 21:03:25 2022] POST /archives/list/discuss(a)lists.chicagohpc.org/message/ATXUU5VT NBT6TIF72T7WNNHDIJNOROIF/reply => generated 949 bytes in 104 msecs (HTTP/1.0 200) 8 headers in 258 bytes (1 switches on core 1) I'm using nginx as the http server. location / { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr; } location /static/ { alias /opt/mailman/web/static/; autoindex off; } Does anyone have an idea of why posting messages from the web interface never shows up? I turned on all the debug logs but can't find an error. Thanks

No DBA password when installing Mailman3 with remote database server
by Markus Ludwig Grandpré Nov. 1, 2022

Nov. 1, 2022

Dear Mailman3 list, I try to install the Mailman3 software 3.3.3-1 on a Debian 11 system with a remote Postgres database server. During the installation process dpkg is asking for the DBA password that our DBA team would not provide to me. So what can I do?

about the last upgrade, one more thing about urls.py
by Guillermo Hernandez (Oldno7) Oct. 31, 2022

Oct. 31, 2022

I forgot to mention that I found one error in the last upgrade procedure in the migrate part. It is about the urls.py file. It's about the import from django.conf.urls the "url", that now is inexistent. After searching around, I've edited urls.py like below. That saved me from modifying more things in that file. ### from django.conf import settings ### mod. 30/10/22 ###from django.conf.urls import include, url from django.conf.urls import include from django.urls import re_path as url ##### -- ___________________________________________ Mailman's content filtering has removed the following MIME parts from this message.

after last upgrade I've got a CSRF failed verification
by Guillermo Hernandez (Oldno7) Oct. 31, 2022

Oct. 31, 2022

I did upgrade one of my mailman3 server after Abhilasj announcement: "I am pleased to announce several new releases for GNU Mailman project. 1. Mailman Core 3.3.6 1 <https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/NEWS.…> 2. Postorius 1.3.7 2 <https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/postorius/en/latest/news.html#section-2> 3. Hyperkitty 1.3.6 [3] 4. Mailmanclient 3.3.4 [4] 5. Django-mailman3 1.3.8 [5]" I did it via pip and all seems to be working, but when I try to discard or accept any message via postorius it shows a Forbidden 403 error CSRF verification failed. In my settings.py I have commented out these variables: # Other security settings # SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT = True # If you set SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT to True, make sure the SECURE_REDIRECT_EXEMPT # contains at least this line: # SECURE_REDIRECT_EXEMPT = [ # "archives/api/mailman/.*", # Request from Mailman. # ] # SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = True # SECURE_CONTENT_TYPE_NOSNIFF = True # SECURE_BROWSER_XSS_FILTER = True # CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE = True # CSRF_COOKIE_HTTPONLY = True # X_FRAME_OPTIONS = 'DENY' I've been messing with them whith no results. It's like it lacked some value in some template... Can someone, please, point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance -- ___________________________________________ Mailman's content filtering has removed the following MIME parts from this message.

If you want to do off line compression which is a good thing, you need to set ``` COMPRESS_ENABLED = True ``` in your Django settings.

Problems after Upgrade
by Jeff Oct. 31, 2022

Oct. 31, 2022

Hello, I tried to upgrade to the latest mailman3 version using the following command: pip install -U mailman postorius django-mailman3 hyperkitty mailman-web mailmanclient There didn’t appear to be any problems with this step and I’ve since run it again a few times and only see that the requirements have been satisfied. When first running the command: mailman-web migrate I received several errors dealing with search_text in the package compressor (at least that’s as best as I remember, I wasn’t taking notes). I fixed these manually by changing it to search_str. Eventually "mailman-web migrate” started working and has subsequently worked. When I run the command: mailman-web compress I get the following error: traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/mailman-web", line 8, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/local/mailman3/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/mailman_web/manage.py", line 37, in main execute_from_command_line(sys.argv) File "/usr/local/mailman3/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 446, in execute_from_command_line utility.execute() File "/usr/local/mailman3/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 440, in execute self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv) File "/usr/local/mailman3/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 279, in fetch_command klass = load_command_class(app_name, subcommand) File "/usr/local/mailman3/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 49, in load_command_class return module.Command() File "/usr/local/mailman3/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/django/core/management/base.py", line 274, in __init__ raise TypeError("requires_system_checks must be a list or tuple.") TypeError: requires_system_checks must be a list or tuple. I have not been able to fix this and would appreciate any assistance. When I run the command: bin/mailman-web collectstatic It asks me yes or no continue and when I enter “yes” it displays the following which I assume means it worked: 372 static files copied to '/usr/local/mailman3/web/static', 38 unmodified Starting mailman3 seems to work by the status message shows the following: systemctl status -l mailman3 ...

Mailman3-core rest failure
by Jacob Sievert Oct. 30, 2022

Oct. 30, 2022

Hello, since our last update from python 3.6 to python 3.9 our mailman server returns the following errors if we try to access the list via postorius. [29/Oct/2022:13:25:25 +0200] "GET /3.1/lists/XXX.XXX.XX/archivers HTTP/1.1" 500 38 "-" "GNU Mailman REST client v3.3.4" I tried to set the logging to a more verbose state but couldn't get a better message yet. If somebody knows what went wrong, that would be great. regards Jacob

Adding users

Oct. 30, 2022

Hi, I've tried to add new members to the mailing list, but I failed even if I tried 3 ways: - manage.py shell - invitation letter - sending a letter to subscribe. I try to solve it with the Python shell now. Based on this site: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/build/lib/mailman/mode… I tried this one from Debian bash command line, but there is an error message, as you can see at the end. # pwd /usr/share/mailman3-web # ./manage.py shell In [1]: from mailman.interfaces.usermanager import IUserManager In [2]: from zope.component import getUtility In [3]: user_manager = getUtility(IUserManager) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ComponentLookupError Traceback (most recent call last) <ipython-input-3-9500ce4250f0> in <module> ----> 1 user_manager = getUtility(IUserManager) /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/zope/component/_api.py in getUtility(interface, name, context) 167 if utility is not None: 168 return utility --> 169 raise ComponentLookupError(interface, name) 170 171 def queryUtility(interface, name='', default=None, context=None): ComponentLookupError: (<InterfaceClass mailman.interfaces.usermanager.IUserManager>, '') What do I wrong. Should I stop all my mailman processes first? Thanks, Arpad

restriction on attrs?
by Stephen J. Turnbull Oct. 27, 2022

Oct. 27, 2022

Hi, I'm working with a frozen requirements.txt for a full Mailman 3 install (BigCorp QA stuff), and trying to decide whether it's worth fighting BigCorp QA to update it to the recent releases. The previous test install pulled in attrs 22.1.0, but now mailman-3.3.6 restricts attrs<21.3. I can't find any documentation for this change, which Mark made in a change d0595dec76 that's documented to be about lmtp and smtp. What's going on with this change? Steve

New Mailman Releases
by Abhilash Raj Oct. 27, 2022

Oct. 27, 2022

Hi, I am pleased to announce several new releases for GNU Mailman project. 1. Mailman Core 3.3.6 [1] 2. Postorius 1.3.7 [2] 3. Hyperkitty 1.3.6 [3] 4. Mailmanclient 3.3.4 [4] 5. Django-mailman3 1.3.8 [5] All the releases are published to PyPI and you can find links to all the PyPI projects: https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/ A full list of changelogs are available below: [1]: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailman/en/latest/src/mailman/docs/NEWS.… [2]: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/postorius/en/latest/news.html#section-2 -- Something weird is going on with the page missing the bullets. [3]: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/hyperkitty/en/latest/news.html#news-1-3-6 [4]: https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/mailmanclient/en/latest/src/mailmanclien… [5]: https://gitlab.com/mailman/django-mailman3/-/blob/master/README.rst Finally, the minimum Python version required is 3.7 although, 3.9 is recommended if you are doing a new install for longest support. 3.10 is supported for Django apps, but Mailman Core is missing that due to one of the core dependencies not support 3.10 yet (aiosmtpd). Thanks to all the contributors for making this release possible and apologies on my end for delayed releases. If you find any issues, you can report them at the respective bug tracker for the projects. The links to issue trackers are available here: https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/ -- thanks, Abhilash Raj (maxking)
