The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[David Verdin <address@concealed>]

Hi Nick,

That's also something new that actually appeared in Symap 5.4: we no longer use suexec

Please have a look at this part of the doc which explains everything about the web server configuration: https://www.sympa.org/manual/web-interface#installing_wwsympafcgi_in_your_apache_server

To sum things up, we explain that, basically, you should replace, in your web server config, the former usages of wwsympa.fcgi by wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi (and sympa_soap_server.fcgi by sympa_soap_server-wrapper.fcgi).

That sould do.

Cheers,

David

Hi all,

One final problem I think for my upgrade to 6.0.5: wwsympa fails with

It appears that suexec is not functioning properly.

The sympa documentation refers to 'User' and 'Group' directives, but
these are not available in apache2. In debian I have installed
apache2-suexec-custom, enabled suexec module and defined SuexecUserGroup
in the virtual host site definition, but still it does not work, even
after a full restart.

What am I missing, please?

Thanks.

Nick
