Developers of Sympa

[Gianluca Pasqualini <address@concealed>]

---- the bug

I've just installed and configuring the new Sympa 3.0a from scratch on a
Red Hat 7.0.


After installation, every time I try to create a new list with wwsympa,
after i press the "Submit your creation request" button i get
'unable_to_create_dir' error.

After a look in the ~sympa/bin directory and sources I saw that
wwsympa.fci has sympa.sympa 755 owner and permission flags and the
mailing list directory should be created in ~sympa/expl even with
sympa.sympa 755 owner and permissions.

The httpd daemon works with 'apache' user so i set the SUID for
wwsympa.fcgi bit to see if it starts to work properly.

To the new try, the server answer with:

        Internal Server Error

        The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request.

        ecc ecc.

but the directory is created and logs shows all is working:

Nov  7 01:21:35 newpascal wwsympa[3264]: No directory for list analisi_1
Nov  7 01:21:35 newpascal wwsympa[3264]: [client 62.98.89.105] [user
address@concealed] do_create_list, get action :
listmaster,notify
Nov  7 01:21:35 newpascal wwsympa[3264]: notify postmaster
Nov  7 01:21:35 newpascal wwsympa[3264]:
List::send_notify_to_listmaster(request_list_creation,analisi_1
)         


and the new list appears in the pending list.



--- the other

I've made a little script for insert, show and remove automatically list
aliases in /etc/aliases.
If you are still not implementing that feauture inside sympa/wwsympa 3.0
I'd like to contribute with this, but I need your developing guidelines
before to modify wwsympa sources (script should run with SUID root).
At the moment I've still not studied wwsympa source modifications.

Also, I'm interested in Italian translation.



regards!
