Pending subscription request weirdness
Hi,
I have a problem that looks like this FAQ, but I'm pretty sure it's not:
There is only one Mailman instance in play, and I can actually see the subscription request in /var/lib/mailman/lists/LISTNAME/request.pck. I've been getting the email notification for a few days, but in the GUI there are "no pending requests".
dumpdb shows this:
dumpdb -p request.pck [----- start pickle file -----] <----- start object 1 -----> { 18: ( 2, ( 1463673214.732806, 'redacted@ukmuenster.de', u'Universit\xe4tsklinikum M\xfcnster', 'redacted', 0, 'de')), 'version': (0, 1)} [----- end pickle file -----]
This is Mailman 2.1.18. Any ideas?
Cheers Sebastian

Is there anything in Mailman's error log when you go to the admindb page?
If you get the script at https://www.msapiro.net/scripts/list_requests and run it, does it show the request?

I can only think of three possibilities. Either your Mailman/Cgi/admindb.py script is broken or the web server you wind up at (after possible, behind the scenes redirects, proxying, whatever) is not looking at the same Mailman installation or you are somehow looking at an old page which is cached somewhere.
If you think it not either of the latter two, please send me off list copies of both the lists/LISTNAME/request.pck file and the Mailman/Cgi/admindb.py file and I will check further.
