[Bug 964190] [NEW] Trailing slash is stripped from List-Archive: URL
Public bug reported: In creating the List-Archive: header, CookHeaders.py strips a trailing slash from the URL returned by mlist.GetBaseArchiveURL(). It has always (in 2.1) done this, but it is wrong. Consider a list's archive TOC page which has entries like the following: <tr> <td>March 2012:</td> <td> <A href="2012-March/thread.html">[ Thread ]</a> <A href="2012-March/subject.html">[ Subject ]</a> <A href="2012-March/author.html">[ Author ]</a> <A href="2012-March/date.html">[ Date ]</a> </td> <td><A href="2012-March.txt">[ Text 766 KB ]</a></td> </tr> If the base archive URL is http://www.example.com/private/listname/ and one goes to that URL, the relative hrefs all work fine, but if one goes to http://www.example.com/private/listname instead, those relative hrefs become relative to private/ instead of private/listname/, and one gets 'no such list: 2012-march' errors (or 404 errors in the case of public 'pipermail' URLs). ** Affects: mailman Importance: Low Assignee: Mark Sapiro (msapiro) Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/964190 Title: Trailing slash is stripped from List-Archive: URL To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/964190/+subscriptions
I don't think this issue actually affects public (pipermail) URLs because in those cases the web server is serving static HTML and knows the /listname is a directory. It also can be worked around for private URLs by putting an appropriate rewrite rule in the web server, but this fix is still correct, and shouldn't cause any harm. ** Changed in: mailman Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/964190 Title: Trailing slash is stripped from List-Archive: URL To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/964190/+subscriptions

Status in GNU Mailman: Fix Committed
Bug description: In creating the List-Archive: header, CookHeaders.py strips a trailing slash from the URL returned by mlist.GetBaseArchiveURL(). It has always (in 2.1) done this, but it is wrong.
Consider a list's archive TOC page which has entries like the following:
<tr> <td>March 2012:</td> <td> <A href="2012-March/thread.html">[ Thread ]</a> <A href="2012-March/subject.html">[ Subject ]</a> <A href="2012-March/author.html">[ Author ]</a> <A href="2012-March/date.html">[ Date ]</a> </td> <td><A href="2012-March.txt">[ Text 766 KB ]</a></td> </tr>
If the base archive URL is http://www.example.com/private/listname/ and one goes to that URL, the relative hrefs all work fine, but if one goes to http://www.example.com/private/listname instead, those relative hrefs become relative to private/ instead of private/listname/, and one gets 'no such list: 2012-march' errors (or 404 errors in the case of public 'pipermail' URLs).
