The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[christopher pax <address@concealed>]

Success :-)
The first problem I had, and if you read the first post carefully, I put the robot.conf in the wrong directory.

The second thing i did was eliminate the <VirtualHost> tag from httpd.conf:
<location /my>
     SetHandler fastcgi-script
</location>
ScriptAlias /my /home/sympa/bin/wwsympa.fcgi
Alias /static-my /home/sympa/etc/my.domain/static_content

and my robot.conf:
http_host  lists.my.domain/my
listmaster address@concealed
title Your MailingLists Service
create_list  listmaster
default_home  home

Salaam,

* chris you do not need to change the document root  for the new robot.

* Atleast this is what I do.

* Just keep your DocumentRoot the same as the document root of the original robot or the first robot, try /home/sympa or /home both, either of the one will work

* Also if your robot name is domain.edu then the ServerName should also be njit.edu

* This is my sample robot virtual host
<VirtualHost 1.1.1.1:80>
    ServerAlias extranet.domain.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html
</VirtualHost>

* The above is all that you need to put in your virtual host remove everything else from your virtual host and try

wa salaam,
Muhammed Sameer
