Hi,
i am trying to install MM3 and had a few issues with it. First i was trying the Mailman3-full package for Debian which didnt work good for me. There was missing paths and files, after some research i found out it may not be well maintained right now. I was working to fix the issue i come up with but had no luck with it. After that i was trying this Howto: https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Howto_Install_Mailman3_On_Debian10 the Installation worked in some aspect. i had a running mailman3 service but the webinterfaces was not working. After some searching i found a issue that was stating that the current release had a bug in it wich made it not working. For instance was the config file different for "systemctl start mailman3" then when i was checking it "mailman info" and some paths was not like in the instructions again, this time i added the folders and put the files needed for it in to it but could not make it work.
i kept digging and find out for prod it is best practice to install in a virtual environment so i waited for the bug to fix and took this Installation Instructions: https://docs.list.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#virtualenv-install i was a little bit confused that there seems to be two spots from the official site where you can find Installation Instructions: https://wiki.list.org/DOC/ and https://docs.list.org/ since the last one made it seem like it was newer i choose the venv installation instructions.
From the install instructions at https://docs.list.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#virtualenv-install i was seeing that there is also some folders not showing up like mentioned in the howto: /op/mailman/mm was not there. In the part where you configure mailman core it says you need to add the /etc/mailman/mailman.cfg file it shows that the path is used for the hyperkitty config as well as it is the path vor the "var_dir: /opt/mailman/mm/var". i added the paths and at the point in the install instructions here https://docs.list.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#starting-mailman-aut... i checked if i can start mailman3 now but still fail to do so.
when i check "journalctl -xe" i find the following information but cant get more information on how to fix it in the net with it:
