Help With Mailman

Hello everyone. I am having a little issue with mailman. I’ve installed
and
configured mailman for mulyoo.net which works. On this particular server
the
software is Ubuntu 10 (Lucid). On a different server, I did the same
installation and configuration, but this server is running Ubuntu 8
(Hardy).
However, when I visit this server (mulyoo.org), I get a bad gateway
error.
Can someone help me troubleshoot and figure out what may be wrong? If it
helps, I used a tutorial similar to this for installation and
configuration: http://e-healthexpert.org/book/export/html/430

What is in error_log ?

Hello, Igor. This is what’s in the error log:

2011/02/10 10:45:25 [error] 24949#0: *4 connect() failed (111:
Connection
refused) while connecting to upstream, client: 205.172.21.53, server:
mulyoo.org, request: “GET /mailman/ HTTP/1.1”, upstream: "
http://174.142.104.180:8000/mailman/listinfo", host: “mulyoo.org
2011/02/10 10:45:25 [error] 24949#0: *4 open()
“/usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/favicon.ico” failed (2: No such file or
directory), client: 205.172.21.53, server: mulyoo.org, request: “GET
/favicon.ico HTTP/1.1”, host: “mulyoo.org

I think I may have found the issue though. When I do “telnet
174.142.104.180
8000”, I get connect refused. So, I’ve contacted my hosting company to
see
how I can remedy this. Or if you have a suggestion I am all ears (it is
an
unmanaged dedicated server).

Thanks everyone. My issue has been resolved, but now I have a new issue
and
its with emails. This is the bounce back I get:

Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

[email protected]

Technical details of permanent failure:
Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the
recipient
domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further
information about the cause of this error. The error that the other
server
returned was: 554 554 5.7.1 [email protected]: Relay access
denied (state 14).

My records are below:

mulyoo.org. IN MX 10 mail.mulyoo.org.
mail IN A 72.55.148.59

Check your firewalll

on the hosting side

Also, you may try to use this configuration with moni_httpd
instead of thttpd:
Mailman with nginx and thttpd

Hi there,

Thanks everyone. My issue has been resolved, but now I have a new issue and

Point your web browser at http://mulyoo.org:8000/ Click the “mailman”
link. You’re talking directly to thttpd; there is no nginx involvement
here. (Unless you intend for that to be the case, you may want to
tighten
up the config.)

You’ll probably find better help on mailman, or your smtp server,
resources.

The error that the other server
returned was: 554 554 5.7.1 [email protected]: Relay access
denied (state 14).

You’ll probably want to make sure that the smtp server knows that it
should handle mail for the domain mulyoo.org. There’s almost certainly a
(non-nginx) manual showing how to do that.

Good luck with it,

This your SMTP server issue, but not nginx’s one.

Ah, thank you. I didn’t even think about smtp, and I am sure that smtp
is
the issue.

Ok, I have postfix installed and these are the steps I took:

sudo aptitude -y install postfix telnet mailx
sudo nano /etc/aliases
root: some_value
sudo newaliases
sudo nano /etc/postfix/main.cf

============================================================
myorigin = $mydomain

mydestination = $mulyoo, localhost.$mulyoo, localhost

mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8

sudo /etc/init.d/postfix restart

From what I gathered, postfix should be able to send email, but after
doing the steps above, I still can’t send email through mailman. Is
there an alternative solution?

Thanks, I am actually trying this one last tutorial:
http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/DovecotLDAPostfixAdminMySQL

If it still doesn’t work, then I will take your suggestion and try exim.
Thanks.

apt-get install exim4

I was having issues of a Wordpress script not emailing and switching to
exim4 fixed it rather than dealing with Sendmail.

That will only complicate your life. If you can’t get Postfix working
with the default setup, adding LDAP and MySQL into the mix surely isn’t
going to make things any easier. Exim isn’t going to magically fix this
problem either. Installing Mailman usually “Just Works”. This is a
Mailman and MTA (Postfix) integration issue. There are a few ways that
could be done. I know this one
http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node13.html works. I’ve used other
techniques, too.
