Hello everybody! It seems that it is quite common problem - I was browsing the archives of this list and every month someone is asking similar question to this one I am going to ask... unfortunatelly I haven't found any good answer yet. But I believe you all know what could be wrong. Perhaps something silly, but it has already droven me crazy. I moved a site with several lists from Majordomo to Mailman. Everything is working fine, users are pleased, the only one problem is a question of archives. Empty archives....

Whenever I go to a page like: http://www.mysite/pipermail/list-name/ (e.g. http://www.most.org.pl/pipermail/eko-news/ - this is real) I have a message "Currently, there are no archives".

I made the following section in my Web server configuration file:

<Directory /var/lib/mailman/archives/public> Options FollowSymLinks order allow,deny allow from all </Directory>

and I made the "pipermail" directory a symbolic link to /var/lib/mailman/archives/public

So, when I use the address http://www.mysite/pipermail/list-name/, it reads files from the /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/list-name . There are only two files there - one of them is "index.html" with this message "currently there are no archives", and the second one is pipermail.pck with some strange contents.

However, all the meesage sent to a list exist in the /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/list-name.mbox/list-name.mbox and if I type such URL in my browser, I have an access to some raw text data of all messages sent to the list so fat.

But this is not I what I am looking for :-( I want a real archive, accessible from the info page of every list.

What I did wrong? Why this "index.html" in my /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/list- name directory is only a "currently there are no archives" instead of nice page with real archives?

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
