>Description:
We are migrating our old sympa server to FreeBSD. After installing it we tried to follow the post-install instructions but they are wrong
There is a typo on the PostgreSQL filename, and samples must be copied before use the interactive shell, else this doesn't work.
Also, /usr/local/share/sympa/css directory has wrong permissions, sympa user must be set on this directory else sympa send a mail when it starts with the following content:
Could not create directory /usr/local/share/sympa/css: Permission denied
>How-To-Repeat:
Install SYMPA 6.1.20 with Apache, FCGID and PostgreSQL backend
>Fix:
You'll find post installation corrections below:
