[Mailman-Users] admin web interface is not saving changes and asks me to re-enter password

[Cornils, Karin]

This is on a Debian 4 package installation of Mailman 2.1.9 w. Apache2.


I have tried all the FAQ suggestions in the FAQs that seem to relate to
this issue: 

 

4.71

4.45

4.27

4.2.9

4.65

4.69  

 

All  to no avail - details below - does anyone have any other
suggestions?

Many thanks,

Karin C

 

 

 

4.71 - tried all this

http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.071.htp  -
4.71. Accessing the web admin interface or private archives via a framed
page requires constant reauthorization (e.g., asking me to re-enter my
password).

 

It was not an IE issue - even tested with no privacy security - no
change

 

4.45 - tried all this

http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.045.htp 

4.45. The admin web interface is not saving my changes and keeps asking
me to re-enter my password -- what is wrong?

 

4.29 - tried all this

http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.029.htp -
4.29. Where can I change a list or the default URL used for the web
interface?

 

4.27. Securing Mailman's web GUI by using Secure HTTP/SSL

 

I Have not changed the site to https/ssl/tls  

 

The following talks about a redirect - and I'm using 

ScriptAlias /mailman/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/

with the default_url_pattern in mm_cfg.py set to match , so that doesn't
look like the issue.

[Mailman-Users] web interface not saving changes 

 

4.65 - tried all this

http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.065.htp -
4.65. Admin Web interface requires reauthentication (e.g., re-entering
the password) at every step and doesn't save changes.

 

It wasn't a firewall issue - opened all ports to test it and didn't make
a difference.

 

Don't see where I might have picked up the /etc/sysconfig/i18n file
issue - file doesn't exist on my system.

 

 

4.69 - tried all this

http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.069.htp

4.69. Why aren't my mm_cfg.py settings for DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN and
DEFAULT_URL_HOST effective?

This was done.
