Re: Trouble creating mailing lists

2022-10-26 Thread Ian Kelling
Ok, I've reproduced the issue by logging into savannah as superuser and
clicking to create an ironclad project list. It appears that the script
on the lists server is not being called (it does logging, and has logged
nothing). But, in that log I see that another list was created
yesterday. So, it seems like there is an issue in the savannah code I'm
less familiar with.

Could one of the savannah hackers look into this? The goal is to create
2 public lists:

ironc...@nongnu.org and
bug-ironc...@nongnu.org

Ok, I talked with Bob briefly, the earlier step in the process is a cron
that runs /opt/savannah/bin/sv_mailman on mgt0. So, looks like a bit of
work to check if that script is having a problem, or if it is in the
code that handles the post request.

And I double checked that the POST returned 200, the url and data for
creating ironc...@nongnu.org is this:

https://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/admin/index.php
form_id=redacted
post_changes=y
group_id=12228
list_name[new]
newlist_format_index=1
is_public[new]=1
description[new]=test
update=Submit

Ok, I looked into that cron script, looks like it doesn't find the list
in the database, so something is going on in an earlier step. 

mysql> select * from mail_group_list where list_name = 'ironclad';

0 results.

streaksu, I will create the lists for you manually, they just won't show
up in the savannah UI until this gets sorted out.
