I've been running GNU's mailman on a Debian (woody) server for a year or
so. I'm happy to say I haven't needed to touch the admin interface once
since I originally set it up. However, the need has come about for me
to do it and I'm running into some very strange problems. It looks like
when apache ( 1.3.26 + mod_perl ) tries to exec one of the cgi programs,
it shows whats at the following URL ( it's a bunch of garbage ascii ):
http://coronasolutions.com/cgi-bin/mailman/admin
However, when I run them from command-line ( su'd ), they appear to spit
out the correct HTML to stdout.
The 'admin' executable looks like this:
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root list 5584 Sep 18 2002 admin
and 'ldd' output looks like this:
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40019000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
I wonder if something happened during a software update that broke it?
Is this a suid problem? I'm confused..
Thanks for any help.
