mailman-bundler-3.0b2 Login methods
Hi,
I have installed mailman-bundler-3.0b2. On the Postorius login page, by default there is the Google, persona and Yahoo authentication. I only want basic native application authentication, which I can't see in this page.
Tweaking the AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS variable in development.py, I could disable the Google and Yahoo authentication and 'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend' seemingly corresponds to the persona authentication.
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ( #'social_auth.backends.google.GoogleBackend', #'social_auth.backends.yahoo.YahooBackend', #'social_auth.backends.OpenIDBackend', 'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend', )
So the question does Postorius/Hyperkitty support basic authentication at all? How can I enable it?
Cheers

Well, that's kinda hard to tell since we don't know what you've configured how.
There's a good chance that it's a problem in the Mailman system since this is all quite young, but without knowing exactly what you've done it's hard to diagnose.
I would suggest getting hold of terri or florianf (Postorius developers) or abompard (I pretty sure he's HyperKitty dev) on Freenode IRC #mailman channel, and having them walk you through the process. That should convince them of a bug if there is one (or maybe it's just hard to understand docs, but that should be fixed too).

Yes, this is the right place. I am unable to answer your questions, and apparently those who are are otherwise occupied at the moment. Two days is not a long time.
If you are impatient, you can try the #mailman irc channel on freenode.net.

A couple of questions to get a little closer to what exactly went wrong:
Does "After login with persona" mean, that the persona login process itself (new browser window/tab) went OK and without any errors?
Did the new browser window/tab close itself after you completed the persona login? Did you notice any errors (in the browser console for instance) during the process?
Did the mailman login page reload after the persona window/tab was closed, and if so, did it redirect you correctly to the '/archives/' url?

Yes it closed itself. No errors appear in the console.

Yes it reloaded to '/archives/' correctly. But the new page seems NOT logged in. The Login button is still there, and the administrative options don't appear.

Anyway, even if that works, it's still strange that you see the login button in the archives header after the persona dance is done...
Also, we should definitely make it easier to hop from the archives to the admin pages and vice versa.

[1] Change the LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL to 'mailman3' in mailman_web/development.py or mailman_web/production.py if you want the login to redirect to the admin pages (postorius).

Hey!
Indeed I'm the HyperKitty dev, and I wrote mailman-bundler too. Sorry I couldn't reply earlier.
Please check your webserver logs for any 500 error. Also please check that you have setup the BROWSERID_AUDIENCES variable in the configuration file (there is a link in a comment right above the variable with instructions on how to configure it).
Also, we should definitely make it easier to hop from the archives to
the admin pages and vice versa.
There should be a link to Postorious in the top menu bar in HyperKitty now.
