I'm trying to move my mailman3 web interface from example.com/mailman3 to just lists.example.com like this site. I am not having luck with the apache configuration. I've tried below but I just get a 403:

Apache typically runs as www-data or some such user, while Mailman resources are typically owned by mailman, lists, or list (depending on distribution and administrator whim). Does the webserver have the appropriate permissions to access /var/lib/mailman3/web/static? Perhaps when uwsgi forks it changes effective uid, in which case it needs to have access.

Mark may have better ideas.

<VirtualHost *:80>

ServerAdmin admin@example.com ServerName lists.example.com ServerAlias www.lists.example.com

<Directory "/var/lib/mailman3/web/static"> Require all granted </Directory>

<IfModule mod_proxy_uwsgi.c> ProxyPass /favicon.ico ! ProxyPass /static ! ProxyPass / unix:/run/mailman3-web/uwsgi.sock|uwsgi://localhost </IfModule>

</VirtualHost>

Alias /favicon.ico /var/lib/mailman3/web/static/postorius/img/favicon.ico Alias /static /var/lib/mailman3/web/static

What's in your apache error.log and your Django log?

Do you have your subdomain listed in ALLOWED_HOSTS in your Django settings?

The Apache Error Log says:

authz_core:error] [pid 90530] [client 50.200.240.158:50063] AH01630: client denied by server configuration: /var/lib/mailman3/web/static/index.php

Interesting. You have

<Directory "/var/lib/mailman3/web/static">
	Require all granted
</Directory>

I do note that your

Alias /static      /var/lib/mailman3/web/static

is outside the VirtualHost definition. You might try moving it inside. I don't know if that will help, but it may.

Ok, progress with tinkering some. Using the below configuration I can manually navigate to lists.example.com/mailman3/postorius/lists/ and all is working fine. If I go to lists.example.com/mailman3 it for some reason redirects to lists.example.com/mailman/postorius/lists/ which generates a 404.

This is a uWSGI issue.

ProxyPass /mailman3 unix:/run/mailman3-web/uwsgi.sock|uwsgi://localhost

Others have found that changing this to

ProxyPass /mailman3/ unix:/run/mailman3-web/uwsgi.sock|uwsgi://localhost/

fixes it. Note the added slashes after mailman3 and localhost. See this thread https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/U...

Going to lists.example.com also hits a 404.

Here

RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =lists.example.com [OR] RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.lists.example.com RewriteRule ^ https://%%7BSERVER_NAME%7D%%7BREQUEST_URI%7D [END,NE,R=permanent]

You're redirecting http to https, but have you defined a VirtualHost for port 443? Just copy your <VirtualHost *:80> block to a <VirtualHost *:443> block.

So adding the slashes did not fix, but I did get a workaround to work from the other thread:

ProxyPass /mailman3 unix:/run/mailman3-web/uwsgi.sock|uwsgi://localhost ProxyPass /mailman unix:/run/mailman3-web/uwsgi.sock|uwsgi://localhost

Now makes it so that lists.example.com/mailman3 works sort of correctly. Weirdly enough, however, it redirects to lists.example.com/mailman/postorius/lists/ rather than */mailman3/*

AND, if you go to lists.example.com/mailman it errors out with a 404 but redirects to

lists.example.com/mailma

So somehow a letter is getting deleted for some reason.

This is a known issue with some versions of uWSGI. The only information I have is in the thread at https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/U...
