Can't execute mailman cgi scripts

Hello to all,

I Migrate from an old server to a new VPS, in the oldone I have Django
Application, an OpenERP server and Mailman. I finish migrate all, but
the mailman listmanager doesn't. http://lists.openit.com.bo

I receive this error trying to access trough the web:

handler_cgi.c line=649 cmd=/usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/: Permission denied

Would be this line on the handler_cgi.c file:
http://svn.cherokee-project.com/browser/cherokee/tags/0.99.2/cherokee/handler_cgi.c#L649

My VPS is an Ubuntu Server 8.04 x64, My cherokee versiÃ³n is 0.99.2, for
the mailman installation I use the ubuntu repos and this tutorial
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mailman

In my old server I also have Ubuntu Server and Cherokee, and follow the
same tutorial and Mailman works fine.

First I think would be a permission issue on the mailman installation,
but there are the same permissions that I have on my old Server

root [at] openi:/usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman# ls -all
total 140
drwxr-xr-x 2 root list 4096 2009-07-13 13:47 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2009-07-13 13:47 ..
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root list 9032 2008-03-07 00:22 admin

-rwxr-sr-x 1 root list 9064 2008-03-07 00:22 options
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root list 9064 2008-03-07 00:22 private
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root list 9032 2008-03-07 00:22 rmlist
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root list 9032 2008-03-07 00:22 roster
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root list 9072 2008-03-07 00:22 subscribe

Any hints about solve this issue?

Hello Mario,

First of all, I must say I'm delighted to see that you guys are
migrating your servers to Cherokee; that's great news.. :-)

It looks like Cherokee cannot access the directory content. Have you
tried to add the 'www-data' user to the 'list' group?

0.99.2 is quite old. It'd be way much easier if you used Cherokee
0.99.20. Actually, it ships a Wizard for Mailman that would do all
that work for you.

Leonel is doing a awesome job providing updated Ubuntu packages. Check
it out:
