The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[address@concealed (Rob Ristroph)]

Hi,

        I am a new sympa user.  I have installed it on a test setup
        for a company I work for, and if I can get it work for the
        task of setting up virtual robots, it will probably be used
        for pretty large installation.  However, the second virtual
        robot I set up doesn't allow me to create new lists.  If I
        create a list named "testlist", for example, it says 

        testlist: unknown list

        on the page after pressing the submit button to create the
        list.

        This message appears to come from check_param_in() in
        wwsympa.cgi.  (I renamed the file to .cgi from .fcgi because I
        don't have that fast cgi stuff set up.)  On line 1151 it says:

    if ($in{'list'}) {
        unless ($list = new List ($in{'list'}, $robot)) {
            &error_message('unknown_list', {'list' => $in{'list'}} );
            &wwslog('info','check_param_in: unknown list %s', $in{'list'});
            return undef;
        }

       which is what is failing. I am still in the process of putting
       debug printouts in the code and trying to figure out what is
       going on.

       It seems that the two arguments to "new List()" are set to the
       new list name and the robot name.

       I had set up sympa with a default domain, and it works fine for
       that robot, and only the virtual robot is having the problems.
       I am using Debian testing, and sympa version 4.1.2.

       Has anyone had a similar problem ?
