Mailman issues after re-boot

At this point it's not a matter of "adjusting". There are too many errors in too many unrelated places: Mailman, Postorius, and Django. It appears your Mailman installation has been quite corrupted. My guess is in the process of recovering the host you applied OS upgrades to Python and/or reinstalled Mailman components, and the versions are now very much out of sync. Another possibility is that files were corrupted by the crash. As Odhiambo Washington suggests in a parallel post, your best bet is to preserve your configuration files, Postgresql databases, and queue files (if any), wipe your Mailman installation and reinstall from scratch. I'd back up the Postgres database, of course, but Mailman should just "reattach" to it, applying any migrations automatically. I forget whether you need to run "mailman-web migrate" for Django but I'm pretty sure it's idempotent (you did back up Postgres, right?) Steve

Re: Held for notification - runner exception: 'ascii' codec can't encode character

Had I looked more closely at the Traceback, I would have realized that the issue is that the list's list:admin:action:post template contains non-ascii. In particular, the character in position 5 is ’ which is a unicode right_single_quote, not an ascii apostrophe. > > There may be other unicode fancy quotes ad well. > > You can fix the template to contain only ascii or you can set the character set for English to utf-8 by adding > ``` > [language.en] > charset: utf-8 > ``` > to mailman.cfg. The downside of the latter is that outgoing message bodies will always be base64 encoded which generally precludes grepping mailboxes to find things. Ah hah! Right you are. I removed the offending fancy apostrophe. What about that traceback pointed to the template? (Is it something I could have figured out?) Is it possible to filter out UTF-8 chars from the templates when they are saved in Postorius? Thanks again, Seth

Today no question, but my toolbox: set "global" user preferences; list or delete held messages

by Wikinaut

After some (sorry for bothering you) questions here, I was able to set up a mailman3 system which I regard as perfect for my use. Perhaps, you had similar problems with your installation, especially when coming from mailman2 and, like me, from majordomo...... I collected a lot of information which was presented in this mailling list archive here and also answers of my questions (thanks Mark and others) News: https://github.com/Wikinaut/mailman3-tools has all of these tools. README says: Scripts for maintenance or setting-up of modern mailman3 instances set preferences for all users list held messages delete held messages older n days My setting is strictly as described in the documentation: mailman3 + postorius/hyperkitty are installed via pip in an (venv) /opt/mailman/ My user scripts and a huge mailing list generator (not published here) are in a directory apart from that: user maillistgen home directory /home/maillistgen user maillistgen has some sudo rights set uo in /etc/sudoers a wrapper script is /home/maillistgen/run_mailman.sh which sets the correct path for Python, mailman3 and the (venv). I hope, you like my tiny part of contribution and attribution back to Mark.

You actually had two separate template issues. If you created templates in Postorius, they were inaccessible because of the POSTORIUS_TEMPLATE_BASE_URL issue, but your initial problem with imported lists is different. It probably resulted from running the `mailman import21` command as root which you should never do. You should always run `mailman` commands as the Mailman user. This is mentioned at https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/migration.html#id1 The `mailman import21` command can create list specific templates in Mailman's var/templates/lists/LIST_ID/LC/ directory and if run as root these will be user:group root:root and not world readable and therefore can't be read by Mailman. Also, deleting and recreating the list with the same LIST_ID doesn't remove those templates, so the list still doesn't work. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

Just adding a list-specific logo is not hard. Choose a naming convention (probably something like f"logo-{list_id}.png"), put the logo PNG in one of the static directories and add <IMG SRC="logo-{{list_id}}.png" ALT="Logo for {{list_id}} list." /> in the right place in each template (maybe even "base.html", but more likely an intermediate template specifically to allow putting such customizations in one place for list-specific pages). Adding the ability for a list admin to easily upload a file and set the logo to it would require surgery to Postorius's Python code, though. I will admit that though I think this is a cool idea, I am not interested in doing it myself. But if your interest is at the "I'd rather wait a few months than do myself", GSoC is coming up again, and you could lobby for it when the students start applying. ;-) Steve
