Complete

On a Dedicated or Virtual Private Server:

You can use the locate command to discover where your newlist file lives:

locate newlist | grep -v template

And so then:

# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/newlist your-list-name@example.com
prompt > Enter the email of the person running the list:
prompt > Initial mailman-test password:

And place the text it generates into /etc/aliases or its equivalent on your system. With Postfix installed, for instance, you might need to paste that text into /etc/postfix/aliases (even though /etc/aliases exists.)

[It's easier to create mailman lists through the command line.]

Creating a list at:
example.com/mailman/create

Gives the error:
You are not authorized to create new mailing lists

Which isn't a very nice thing to say.

(where does the user log in, what kind of user rights must have)

From a forum post asking the same question:

<

I am running RH ES 3 and installed the mailman rpm. Every time I try to
create a list it give me this error:

Error: You are not authorized to create new mailing lists

[To put this in something more resembling English, we're talking about creating multiple URLs, more than one web address, to one page or piece of content on a Drupal site.]

It's actually very easy. Go to admin/path/add and add another alias for the node which you want multiply aliased.

(Look up the node/## first by going to the node, and checking the node/##/edit path– you'll have to be logged in to see the edit link.)

So if it's that simple, why would this need an explanatory page on Agaric Design?

NameError: name 'subdomain' is not defined<code> 

In mm_cfg.py the lines need quotes ('), for instance:

<code>DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'subdomain.example.com'

Overview, features, shortcuts

Grid of commands

File permissions (see also file and directory ownership commands)

A problem we dealt with that we very much hope no one else ever sees: a brand new virtual private server install, CentOS, Apache, PHP5, and Webmin, and everything worked except our Drupal site, which came up completely blank.

I am getting a seg fault when I try and run. this line is showing up in the apache error log

'exit signal Segmentation fault (11)'

anyone familiar with this?

here are some drupal notes:

From the Agaric sysadmin:

On the command line, in the directory of the file you want to send:

ftp
open
(enter username + password)
bin
(navigate to the destination directory using cd )
put
quit (or exit)

That's all.

(Don't think this works if FTP isn't set up yet, though. May be a pure SSH way?)

Social Capital Inc. president David Crowley described the site this way:

a new community website with a searchable, customizable database of community services in Dorchester; blogging tools for individuals and organizations; a calendar of events; and an open space to post anything to have to do with Dorchester--maybe your favorite restaurant or tip for avoiding Dot Ave traffic.

The entire project is similar to one which Agaric Design Collective is helping in Natick, http://mynatick.org/

If you see something like this:

Fatal error: Cannot access empty property in /home/user/public_html/dev/sites/default/modules
/newsletter/newsletter.module on line 163

It probably means you are using $node->field syntax on a variable that doesn't exist, or has a zero value– in other words, an empty property.

And the error is probably being thrown in line 174 or something, because the server doesn't always count lines the same as your text editor.
