[Mailman-Users] New apache is causing my mailman to fail...

[Thomas Oakes]

>From this line in the traceback,
/usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.so.0.9.6: bad ELF flags value: 768
I looks like you have a problem with your new install of openssl.

How did you install it? A package? and what OS are you using.

You might reinstall openssl from source if possible.

I'm not entirely sure what the 'bad ELF flags value' means but it sounds
like you're using a precompiled openssl library on a system that doesn't
support it.

Hi All!

I'm currently running Mailman version 2.0.8.

Until last week, our Apache webserver (1.3.14) interfaced with our Mailman
just
fine.

Last week, we needed to upgrade our Apache Web server to 1.3.27.

We also had to upgrade our openssl to the latest version (version OpenSSL
0.9.6g
9 Aug 2002)

We're also running Python version 2.2.2.

Since then, we've been getting the following error attempting to access
mailman
lists from our website:

=================================

Bug in Mailman version 2.0.8

We're sorry, we hit a bug!

Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of
traceback
and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but the
webmaster
can find this information in the Mailman error logs.

===================================

I even tried reinstalling Python to make sure it saw the updated OPENSSL
stuff.

Anyway, from the web, when we do a mailman/listinfo and get the above error,
the
mailman error log reports:

Note the Import error above.

So... again, it worked until we installed the new Apache and new openssl.
Then,
it stopped working giving the above errors.  Rebuilding python did not help.

Any ideas of what I can try?  Is there really a bug in our version of
Mailman?
And should I be reinstalling Mailman?  or is there an easier fix?

Thanks a bunch in advance, and if you could seperately CC: me on your post
to
the mailman list, that would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
