After a lengthy power failure I had to reboot a machine that has been running for several years. the WEB-UI does not seem to be able to see mailman-core. I have looked for log entries that might explain what the issue is and I am stumped to even find logs that will update when I get an error on the browser. Mailman is definitely running, postgres is running and mailman web is running. if I go to the lists page I see lists, if I try to access a specific list I get Server error: An error occurred while processing your request.
I looked in /var/logs/mailman /opt/mailman/web/mailmanweb
All I can find is:
django.urls.exceptions.NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'list_unsubscription_requests' not found. 'list_unsubscription_requests' is not a valid view function or pattern name.16688 ERROR 2023-09-12 13:56:58,430 1760 django.request Internal Server Error: /mailman3/lists/goodstein.goodstein.org/ File "/opt/mailman/venv/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/haystack/admin.py", line 8, in <module> from django.utils.translation import ungettextImportError: cannot import name 'ungettext' from 'django.utils.translation'
(/opt/mailman/venv/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/django/utils/translation/__init__.py)
Also I have to run mailman from "mailman start" because the systemctl returns this:

The mailman-users@mailman3.org list is probably a more appropriate place for issues like this.
django.urls.exceptions.NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'list_unsubscription_requests' not found. 'list_unsubscription_requests' is not a valid view function or pattern name. 16688 ERROR 2023-09-12 13:56:58,430 1760 django.request Internal Server Error: /mailman3/lists/ goodstein.goodstein.org/
/opt/mailman/venv/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/postorius/urls.py should contain
re_path( r'^unsubscription_requests$',list_views.list_unsubscription_requests, name='list_unsubscription_requests', ),
Y
*Yes this exists*
and /opt/mailman/venv/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/postorius/views/list.py should define list_unsubscription_requests.
*Yes there is a method by this name defined*

I don't understand this one offhand, but what is the content of /etc/systemd/system/mailman3.service, in particular the settings for User, Group and ExecStart?
*The service looks right:*
1 [Unit] 2 Description=GNU Mailing List Manager 3 After=syslog.target network.target postgresql.service 4 5 [Service] 6 Type=forking 7 PIDFile=/opt/mailman/mm/var/master.pid 8 User=mailman 9 Group=mailman 10 ExecStart=/opt/mailman/venv/bin/mailman start 11 ExecReload=/opt/mailman/venv/bin/mailman restart 12 ExecStop=/opt/mailman/venv/bin/mailman stop 13 14 [Install] 15 WantedBy=multi-user.target
*It seems I may have two versions of the mailman script:*
mail:/opt/mailman # which mailman /usr/bin/mailman mail:/opt/mailman # ls -al /usr/bin/mailman -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 382 May 10 2021 /usr/bin/mailman mail:/opt/mailman # ls -al /opt/mailman/venv/bin/mailman -rwxr-xr-x 1 mailman mailman 231 Sep 12 10:02 /opt/mailman/venv/bin/mailman
Somehow, your installation is corrupted. I don't know how
*I need to know what to remove, how to correctly update, etc., That said the two scripts appear to be very similar:*
mail:/opt/mailman # head /usr/bin/mailman
#!/usr/bin/python3 # EASY-INSTALL-ENTRY-SCRIPT: 'mailman==3.3.4','console_scripts','mailman' __requires__ = 'mailman==3.3.4' import re import sys from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
if __name__ == '__main__': sys.argv[0] = re.sub(r'(-script\.pyw?|\.exe)?$', '', sys.argv[0]) sys.exit(
mail:/opt/mailman # head /opt/mailman/venv/bin/mailman #!/opt/mailman/venv/bin/python3 # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- import re import sys from mailman.bin.mailman import main if __name__ == '__main__': sys.argv[0] = re.sub(r'(-script\.pyw|\.exe)?$', '', sys.argv[0]) sys.exit(main()) mail:/opt/mailman #
*Given the two years since the last reboot I also tried following * https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/upgrade-guide.html *to make sure I was running the latest*
pip install -U mailman postorius django-mailman3 hyperkitty mailman-web
Why don't you try and do a fresh virtualenv install and move your configs into it?
- cd /opt
- mv mailman _mailman.BAK
- Create a backup of the database.
Then follow this:
https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#virtualenv-insta...,
but do not create the database as it already exists.
You also do not need to run any database migrations, so you can actually
skip those
You just need to ensure that
mailman infosays that its configuration files are in /etc/mailman3/ Create the necessary directories as per the above installation instructions.
