[Mailman-Users] Mailman and htdig - issues after installing htdig

[Scott Race]

Thanks, the instructions from the mailman script fixed that issue.

For the htdig, the URL it goes to after you hit the search button is:

http://lists2.mydomain.org/mailman/mmsearch/mailman_project

It's just blank, the title is the URL.  Was expecting at least a "No results found" type page.

/var/logs/httpd/error shows nothing except a missing favicon.ico, no other errors at all.

/usr/local/mailman/logs/error doesn't give anything for tonight, last errors in the log are from this morning when I was troubleshooting:

In the download directory after ./configure, there is a shell script
misc/mailman. See this file and the instructions at the beginning.

What is the URL of the returned page? What is in your apache error log
and Mailman's error log?
