This seems to be a somewhat common problem, so I've looked at the archives at all the suggestions, tried everything that is recent and nothing has worked. It looks like no archives are actually being created, despite the "yes" option being selected in the list configuration.
Thanks for any help. Kevin Nowaczyk
I'm running mailman 2.1.18 on debian 8.2 (Jessie)
mm_cfg.py has the line DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s/' and no value for PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL. messing with these setting seemed to be a 10 year old issue, so I didn't play around with this for fear of breaking something else
My apache config:

These are irrelevant to your problem.
My apache config:
As is your apache config. It is not a web server issue.
Directory Listing:
.: total 16 drwxrwsr-x 4 root list 4096 Sep 9 20:35 . drwxrwsr-x 8 root list 4096 Jul 6 11:55 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root list 0 Sep 9 20:35 list drwxrws--- 8 www-data list 4096 Feb 24 2015 private drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Sep 9 20:04 public
This looks OK
./private: total 32 drwxrws--- 8 www-data list 4096 Feb 24 2015 . drwxrwsr-x 4 root list 4096 Sep 9 20:35 .. drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Sep 9 19:40 LISTNAME drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Feb 14 2014 LISTNAME.mbox drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Feb 13 2014 mailman drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Feb 13 2014 mailman.mbox
As does this
./private/LISTNAME: total 12 drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Sep 9 19:40 . drwxrws--- 8 www-data list 4096 Feb 24 2015 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 root list 493 Feb 14 2014 index.html
And this says the archive is empty.
./private/LISTNAME.mbox: total 8 drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Feb 14 2014 . drwxrws--- 8 www-data list 4096 Feb 24 2015 ..
And no LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox file says archiving never got far.
./private/mailman: total 12 drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Feb 13 2014 . drwxrws--- 8 www-data list 4096 Feb 24 2015 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 root list 506 Feb 13 2014 index.html
./private/mailman.mbox: total 8 drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Feb 13 2014 . drwxrws--- 8 www-data list 4096 Feb 24 2015 ..
Ditto for the mailman list, but it may never have gotten a post.
./public: total 8 drwxrwsr-x 2 root list 4096 Sep 9 20:04 . drwxrwsr-x 4 root list 4096 Sep 9 20:35 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root list 42 Feb 14 2014 LISTNAME -> /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/LISTNAME lrwxrwxrwx 1 root list 41 Feb 13 2014 mailman -> /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/mailman
OK, but not really relevant to the issue.
Is ArchRunner running?
Is anything in /var/lib/mailman/queue/archive?
What's in /var/lib/mailman/logs/qrunner and /var/lib/mailman/logs/error?

My previous reply assumed that there had been successful posts to the list that weren't archived, but the "Forbidden" in the subject may imply that there have been no posts, but you are getting a 403 Forbidden status from apache when attempting to go to the archives.
If this is the issue, the problem is probably that you have apache 2.4 and this
Alias /pipermail/ /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/
Options +FollowSymLinks Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>
needs to be
Alias /pipermail/ /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/
If that isn't the answer, but the issue is 403 Forbidden, what's in /var/log/apache2/lists-error.log?
