Yesterday morning I upgraded mailman-2.1.14_1 to 2.1.14_2 Since then none of my mailings lists (that worked for years) works. http://myserver.mysubdom.mydom/mailman/listinfo (or any other mailman command) gives Mailman CGI error!!! The Mailman CGI wrapper encountered a fatal error. This entry is being stored in your syslog: Group mismatch error. Mailman expected the CGI wrapper script to be executed as group "@CGI_GROUP@", but the system's web server executed the CGI script as group "www". Try tweaking the web server to run the script as group "@CGI_GROUP@", or re-run configure, providing the command line option `--with-cgi-gid=www'. I know there is an entry in /usr/ports/UPDATING 20110613: AFFECTS: users of mail/mailman with postfix AUTHOR: crees@FreeBSD.org The mailman port has for some time specified the incorrect group when using with Postfix, as reported in ports/142000. The group for mailman is now nobody if compiled with Postfix. Be prepared to make appropriate adjustments if you have compensated for this bug in the past. But I don't use postfix, I Use sendmail I saw there today mailman-2.1.14_3, so I portupgraded to that version and also did # /usr/local/mailman/bin/mailmanctl stop # /usr/local/mailman/bin/mailmanctl start but this doesn't help. Is there an error in de newest version? Do I need to "Try tweaking the web server to run the script as group "@CGI_GROUP@", or re-run configure, providing the command line option `--with-cgi-gid=www'." How should this be done? is this a change in Apache web server ? and how exactly??
