Hi,
I cant reach public archive of my mailman lists.It gives 403 Forbidden error. Also I have got another problem (may be this can be the source of a previous problem ).when I give "check_perms" cmmand to check the permissions of the directory,I get the following output:
""""""""""*******************""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" /var/lib/mailman/mail bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/cgi-bin bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/logs bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/Mailman bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/bin bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/icons bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/templates bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/locks bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/scripts bad group (has: root, expected list) /var/lib/mailman/cron bad group (has: root, expected list)
""""""""""*******************"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Then I tried to fix the permissions with "check_perms -f" command and the output is below :
/var/lib/mailman/mail bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/cgi-bin bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/logs bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/Mailman bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/bin bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/icons bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/templates bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/locks bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/scripts bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing) /var/lib/mailman/cron bad group (has: root, expected list) (fixing)
although it says "fixing" there is nothing change.Because again when I give check_perms command ,it gives same output(I mean first output above).
Do you have any suggestion about this situation ?how can I fix these problems? Thanks :)

Most likely you need something like
<Directory "/var/lib/mailman/archives/public"> Options +FollowSymLinks Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>
in your web server config. Also, see <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node9.html>.

The check_perms issue is not a problem per se. The issue is that all those things check_perms are complaining about are symlinks. See <http://www.google.com/search?q=site:mail.python.org+inurl%3Amailman-users+ch...>.
