Dear list,

I am quite sure creating a robot worked this way (last done some months ago):

1. create robot domain say newsletter.example.com in /etc/sympa
2. inside create file robot.conf with listmaster, title, wwsympa_url entries
3. restart sympa, wwsympa

Now on 6.2.68 this does not work.

After steps 1-3 I tried to:
sympa move --mode=copy address@concealed address@concealed
which gave error:
Unknown robot "newsletter.example.com"

Then pointed browser to https://newsletter.example.com/sympa/ which worked
fine! Tried to create an account which gave no error in the gui and log:
May 17 13:32:03 sympa-server wwsympa[359166]: info
main::do_requestpasswd(address@concealed) [robot newsletter.example.com]
[session 45672154794598] [client IP]

May 17 13:32:03 sympa-server wwsympa[359166]: notice
Sympa::Spindle::ProcessTemplate::_twist() Processing Sympa::Message::Template

May 17 13:32:03 sympa-server wwsympa[359166]: notice
Sympa::Spool::Outgoing::store() Message Sympa::Message::Template
<address@concealed,793> is stored into bulk
spool as
<address@concealed,359166,8230>

But the mail never left sympa instead ended up in
/var/spool/sympa/bulk/bad/msg . No entry (even with debug3) in sympa log.
Fetching the password set link from the "bad" message I was able to create
the account, login and create a new list. Once this was done sympa move
worked, creating accounts worked (password mail was sent).

Is this a regression in Sympa 6.2.28 or did I forget something needed beyond
steps 1-3?

Thank you in advance,
Immo
