Warsaw (bwarsaw) Summary: Major attachment handling bug! Initial Comment: Attachments are not handled correctly. Attached to this bug report is an example email in a mbox file. How to reproduce: 1. create a list called "clasohlson" 2. copy this mbox file to the archive mbox file 3. run bin/arch for the list 4. look at the resulting archive I will post a followup which will contain the resulting html file I got when doing this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2003-01-19 21:11 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Ok, try the attached. I haven't checked the private cgi yet, but I'm sure that's an unrelated problem. This fixes all the other issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2003-01-19 20:41 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Ok, attachment_error.mbox was shallow. I'll have a fix for that too. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2003-01-19 20:37 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 TK, I've looked at the patch, and I like parts of it but not other parts. For me, get_content_charset() always digs out the right character set without the need for that regexp. If it doesn't for you, then that's a bug in the email package, which we should report and fix. I've attached my tentative patch which seems to fix the clasohlson mbox when using Czech. I haven't yet tried attachment_error.mbox, and I haven't fixed the private archiver or the mimetypes lie, but will get to those next. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jan Siml (janjules) Date: 2003-01-19 09:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=151422 After applying the patch it still doesn't work. I deleted the directory of the archive and rebuild the archive by using bin/arch. But even now, i got the same: no attachment, only ")Ãj×¢jxZ¢Ž§Öz|.× zÇ!ç]z»Cj×¢?©Ê<óuA"±È^". Did i forget anything to do? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Buchmann (avalon) Date: 2003-01-19 08:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=184577 Applied cleanly, and now there is only one problem left! :D I believe Mailman is supplying the wrong MIME type for the .doc file when the archive is private. Thus, the webbrowser just displays the raw file instead of launching an application that can handle it correctly. I changed the archive to public, and the file was displayed correctly. Thanks for your quick fix so far, this has really helped a lot! (The users of the particular list were depending heavily on the archive for the list, and considered the list completely unuseable without attachments available in the archive.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tokio Kikuchi (tkikuchi) Date: 2003-01-18 19:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=67709 I have updated the patch. Please try. (Patch ID 670167) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Buchmann (avalon) Date: 2003-01-18 11:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=184577 Sorry, forget my last comment, the attachment was just fine. My mistake. But attachment naming is still a problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Buchmann (avalon) Date: 2003-01-18 11:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=184577 Check also the attached "attachment_error.mbox". It contains a single message, with a MS Word document that becomes completely scrambled after going through pipermail... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Buchmann (avalon) Date: 2003-01-18 11:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=184577 Applied without problems, but gave me the following error when running bin/arch (not on the mbox I submitted, though): Traceback (most recent call last): File "bin/arch", line 187, in ? main() File "bin/arch", line 175, in main archiver.processUnixMailbox(fp, start, end) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py", line 544, in processUnixMailbox m = mbox.next() File "/usr/lib/python2.2/mailbox.py", line 33, in next return self.factory(_Subfile(self.fp, start, stop)) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Mailbox.py", line 79, in scrubber return mailbox.scrub(msg) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Mailbox.py", line 99, in scrub return self._scrubber(self._mlist, msg) File "/home/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Scrubber.py", line 145, in process cs = csre.search(part['content-type']) TypeError: expected string or buffer The offending message had no "Content-Type:" field in its header. (It was, of course, produced by a Microsoft product... ;) Some issues from my earlier subimtted example that still needs to be fixed: 1. The attachment file name still becomes ".dot", not ".doc" as it should have been. Also, the reported size is wrong (larger) than the actual file. 2. "The attachment was scrubbed" part in the archive web page is still sort of "attached" to the message itself, e.g. to the email signature of the user that posted the message. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tokio Kikuchi (tkikuchi) Date: 2003-01-18 01:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=67709 Please try this patch. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300103&aid=670167&group_i… (Patch ID 670167) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Buchmann (avalon) Date: 2003-01-16 11:29 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=184577 -changing priority and assignment- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Buchmann (avalon) Date: 2003-01-16 10:31 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=184577 And here is the html file in english.
