Group: 2.1 beta Status: Closed Resolution: Out of Date Priority: 5 Submitted By: Paul Marshall (paulmarshll) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: bug with 2.1b2 (something with cookies?)

Initial Comment: This is hopefully my third and final stupid question involving mailman. I have mailman 2.1b2 setup and mostly working (I can create lists, and post, etc...).
However whenever I try to log into a list via the admin page to edit/delete/whatever to it, it comes up with this bug:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/mailman/scripts/driver", line 82, in run_main main() File "/var/mailman/Mailman/Cgi/admin.py", line 82, in main cgidata.getvalue('adminpw', '')): File "/var/mailman/Mailman/SecurityManager.py", line 208, in WebAuthenticate print self.MakeCookie(ac, user) File "/var/mailman/Mailman/SecurityManager.py", line 223, in MakeCookie c = Cookie.SimpleCookie() AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'SimpleCookie'

Is this a permissions problem? something to do with creating cookies...Honestly, I have no idea...

I've searched some bug databases and most likely passed right over it, however I can't seem to find anything dealing with this error.

Thanks for all the help.

Paul

Weird! The update script should have gotten rid of those files automatically. It's probably too late for your installation, but if not, try running "bin/update -f" manually and see if the Cookie.pyc file sticks around.

I fixed the problem.

Apparently I still had Cookie.py and Cookie.pyc, which I deleted, this seemed to fix the problem. Found this on:

Thanks anyways.

This post can be deleted.
