Docker Installation of Mailman -- The Hyperkitty Chronicles
Using Maxking's docker project to install mailman3, I have a fairly functional mailman3 installation. However Hyperkitty is not archiving or showing list participants like:
https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/
This is my page:
https://mailman3.emwd.com/hyperkitty/list/testlist@mailman3.emwd.com/
The docker documents really don't say much about getting HK up and running.

Check your list's Settings -> Archiving in Postorius and make sure policy is public or private and HyperKitty is active.
Also, make sure the cron jobs are running. I'm not sure how this is set up in the Docker container, but see <http://docs.list.org/en/latest/config-web.html#scheduled-tasks-required>.

Hi Mark,
Merry Christmas (or Happy Holidays!).
I have the list settings set to Public archives and hyperkitty checked in the Active archivers box.
As for the cron jobs. I am not sure how to change the following to reflect my setup:
# This goes in /etc/cron.d/mailman
# Replace "apache" by your webserver user ("www-data" on Debian systems) and # set the path to the Django project directory
@hourly apache django-admin runjobs hourly --pythonpath /path/to/project --settings settings @daily apache django-admin runjobs daily --pythonpath /path/to/project --settings settings @weekly apache django-admin runjobs weekly --pythonpath /path/to/project --settings settings @monthly apache django-admin runjobs monthly --pythonpath /path/to/project --settings settings @yearly apache django-admin runjobs yearly --pythonpath /path/to/project --settings settings
- apache django-admin runjobs minutely --pythonpath /path/to/project --settings settings 2,17,32,47 * * * * apache django-admin runjobs quarter_hourly --pythonpath /path/to/project --settings settings
For instance, I am using nginx not apache. I also do not know what the /path/to/project should be using maxking's setup. I also am not sure how to call django-admin from the command line. I get the following:
# django-admin -bash: django-admin: command not found

I think we need to wait for Abhilash to answer this as I don't know enough about the Docker setup.

uwsgi handles all the cron jobs in the container images, you don't need to setup anything. See here1.
For instance, I am using nginx not apache. I also do not know what the /path/to/project should be using maxking's setup. I also am not sure how to call django-admin from the command line. I get the following:
# django-admin -bash: django-admin: command not found
If you do need to run django-admin commands, you have to do that
inside the container images. So, try this to enter the container:
$ docker exec -it mailman-web bash
Then to run commands:
$ python manage.py <subcommands>

You don't need to do anything to make HK work.
What do you see in the logs? Check /opt/mailman/web/logs/ for Mailman-Web logs and /opt/mailman/core/var/logs for the logs of Core.
There must be some errors showing up, causing emails to not be archived.

This is what I found but sporadic:

There must be some errors showing up, causing emails to not be archived.
I am not seeing any other errors.
- Do I need mailman-hyperkitty.cfg setup in the /opt/mailman/core directory?
- What ownership/group does the file structure need to be in the /opt/mailman directory? I am wondering if the hyperkitty issue has something to do with permissions?
It seems HK should work out of the box with your docker setup if I read your documentation correctly. Is that correct?
At this moment I am dead in the water. Is there anyway to try to test the archiving and see if the logs shows an error using the tail -f command?
Brian
Are the cron jobs supposed to be showing up in the /opt/mailman/web/logs/uwsgi-error.log? I am seeing:

Ok I was able to trigger an error when posting to the list in the mailmanweb.log:

I solved the problem and now Hyperkitty is working.
I added "mailman-web" to the "/opt/mailman/core/mailman-hyperkitty.cfg" file. Now my archives are working!!!! It looks like I have a fully functional Mailman3 installation at this point. I have some minor issues/questions but I will start a separate thread(s) for them. Probably on Monday.
Thank you Abhilash Raj. You have been a big help.
