Hello,
I'm trying to set things up such that when creating a list on the web
interface, the list gets created inside a particular "standard" family
(we are wanting to migrate a large number of lists from our legacy MLM
to sympa, and am using the list families facility to achieve this -
however any *new* lists that get created on the web interface, I'd like
also to be added to this "standard" list family)
So, in /home/sympa/etc/create_list_templates/template-name/config.tt2,
I'm putting the line :
family_name standard
which, in theory, should add the new list to the list-family named
"standard"...
My problem is that when attempting to subsequently edit any parameters -
it fails with the following in the logfile :
Jun 20 16:04:38 ucsmlm1 wwsympa[2908]: Unable to open file
/home/sympa/expl/blah/config_changes :
Jun 20 16:04:38 ucsmlm1 wwsympa[2908]: Impossible to load file
config_changes from list blah
Jun 20 16:04:38 ucsmlm1 wwsympa[2908]: [robot newcastle.ac.uk] [client
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [user address@concealed] [list blah]
do_savefile: cannot write in config_changes for deleted parameters from
list blah
When the list is created initially, the config_changes file (required to
preserve list customization upon family
re-instantiation) doesn't appear to be being created
Is this a bug? (or shouldn't I be using families in this way?)
I can get things working fine by creating the config_changes file
manually, but I'd like to have it done automatically when the list is
created if possible...
