For importing the archives, it's the mailman-web container. For me it was like:

python manage.py hyperkitty_import -l listxy@somedomain.org /opt/mailman-web-data/listxy.mbox

Before I connected into container as the user mailman!

Also, you want to add the listxy.mbox at /opt/mailman/web/listxy.mbox on your host for the above command to work.

Hope this helps.

I know you can't run mailman commands in the docker images and I have to copy the data to an area where he docker images can access it, but in looking that the commands I got the list settings to import

docker exec -it mailman-core mailman import21 [REDACTED]@REDACTED].REDACTED].org /opt/mailman/migration/config.pck      *** this worked

But having issues importing the archives? do i run this on mailman-core  OR mailman-web?    I tried both but it does not like python?

docker exec -it mailman-core python manage.py hyperkitty_import -l [REDACTED]@REDACTED].REDACTED].org /opt/mailman/migration/[REDACTED].mbox OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: container_linux.go:380: starting container process caused: exec: "python": executable file not found in $PATH: unknown

I am a sorry i still don't understand,

So for docker I need to run the command via "docker exec -it mailman-web" right? Does this run it as user mailman in the docker image?

Yes.

I have my archive copied from the old server and but in a location on my new docker host where it can be accessed by mailman-web image i.e /opt/mailman/web. which is the same location as /opt/mailman-web-data from inside mailman-web, right?

That is correct.

I then run the command

docker exec -it mailman-web python manage.py hyperkitty_import -l [Redacted]@[Redacted].[Redacted].org /opt/mailman-web-data/[Redacted].mbox

but I get the error:

OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: container_linux.go:380: starting container process caused: exec: "python": executable file not found in $PATH: unknown

isn't this showing that it can't find python in the docker container to run the import????

Sorry, I made a typo in the previous email. You want to run that command with python3 instead of python.

docker exec -it mailman-web python3 manage.py hyperkitty_import -l  [Redacted]@[Redacted].[Redacted].org 

And turns out the typo also exists in the docs at one place. I just opened this1 report to fix it.

Thanks,

That worked

docker exec -it mailman-web python3 manage.py hyperkitty_import -l .......

Great! I have added it to the docs as well, so others can find it.
