Installation problem: 404 Errors
Dear list,
I'm having major problems installing Mailman on my SuExec enabled server. I have followed pertinent instructions regarding installation in this environment, but cannot seem to access any mailman pages; all I get is "404 Not Found" errors.
The virtual host is set up ok on the server config. files, to the best of my knowledge, as are the permissions. Is there a specific set of steps I could take to help me diagnose exactly where this problem is rooted?
I'm a Linux novice, and mailman is my first application installation, so this is likely a very basic error on my part. I'm wondering if it might be a server issue re. SuExec, rather than with mailman per se.
When I command: "suexec -V", I get: -D AP_DOC_ROOT="/var/www". However, this is not my web doc path, which is /home/dir1/dir2/html I installed mailman within the suexec path (as mentioned in the set of instructions I followed), at /var/www/mailman
Could this be at the root of the issue? And if so, would installing mailman within the web doc path work vis-a-vis SuExec?
Any help greatly appreciated.. Dan

Yep, gotta stick it in /var/www. Or, configure Apache to use a different directory as it's documentroot...but, seeing as how you're a LInux novice, I'd stick with putting things in /var/www for now.
Best, Ryan

Did you search the FAQ? The archives? Did you search for things like "suexec"?

Did you look at the logs?
