Family list creation / missing listname parameter

Expected behavior

Create list using family or default template

Actual behavior

I try to create list with sympa.pl script, instantiate it by family list or with default template
As a family list, my xml file look like this :
(private data are replace by XXX )

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
  <list>
    <listname>1liai1-1-s1-in-1</listname>
    <subject>FST Licence 1e annee Informatique-groupe 1</subject>
    <owner multiple="1">
      <email>admin.etulistes@uha.fr</email>
      <gecos>Administrateur listes etudiants</gecos>
    </owner>
    <ldap>
      <host>XXX</host>
      <user>XXX</user>
      <passwd>XXX</passwd>
      <use_ssl>yes</use_ssl>
      <ssl_version>sslv3</ssl_version>
      <suffix1>ou=groups,dc=uha,dc=fr</suffix1>
      <timeout1>30</timeout1>
      <attrs1>member</attrs1>
      <filter1>(uhaGroupeMail=1LIAI1-1-S1-IN-1@uha.fr)</filter1>
      <scope1>sub</scope1>
      <select1>all</select1>
      <suffix2>[attrs1]</suffix2>
      <timeout2>30</timeout2>
      <attrs2>mail</attrs2>
      <filter2>(mail=*)</filter2>
      <scope2>sub</scope2>
      <select2>first</select2>
    </ldap>
    <topics>fst/etulistes</topics>
  </list>

command line use

/usr/local/sympa/bin/sympa.pl --add_list etu_gr_collaboratif  --robot uha.fr --input_file /usr/local/sympa/etc/families/etu_gr_collaboratif/1liai1-1-s1-in-1.xml

1liai1-1-s1-in-1.xml is the xml file above

I get

Use of uninitialized value in lc at /usr/local/sympa/bin/Sympa/Request/Handler/create_automatic_list.pm line 75.
create_automatic_list [user] Vous devez fournir le nom de la liste
Impossible to add a list to the family etu_gr_collaboratif

In ../sympa/bin/Sympa/Request/Handler/create_automatic_list.pm
I've make a dump of $param just before line 75

75    my $listname = lc $param->{listname};

Result : no listname in $params

$VAR1 = {
          'editor' => [],
          'owner' => [
                     {
                       'gecos' => 'Administrateur listes etudiants',
                       'email' => 'admin.etulistes@uha.fr'
                     }
                   ],
          'topics' => 'fst/etulistes',
          'subject' => 'FST Licence 1e annee Informatique-groupe 1',
          'ldap' => {
                    'filter1' => '(uhaGroupeMail=1LIAI1-1-S1-IN-1@uha.fr)',
                    'host' => 'XXX',
                    'filter2' => '(mail=*)',
                    'attrs1' => 'member',
                    'suffix1' => 'ou=groups,dc=uha,dc=fr',
                    'select1' => 'all',
                    'passwd' => 'XXX',
                    'attrs2' => 'mail',
                    'timeout1' => '30',
                    'scope2' => 'sub',
                    'use_ssl' => 'yes',
                    'scope1' => 'sub',
                    'suffix2' => '[attrs1]',
                    'user' => 'XXX',
                    'ssl_version' => 'sslv3',
                    'select2' => 'first',
                    'timeout2' => '30'
                  }
        };

Additional information

If I try with a simple xml file and use a default list type

/usr/local/sympa/bin/sympa.pl --create_list --robot=uha.fr --input_file=/tmp/di-test-xml.xml

I get

create_list [user] XXX
Missing argument in printf at /usr/local/sympa/bin/sympa.pl line 731.
Could not create list

I think the listname should appear after Could not create list

xml file in this case look like this

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
  <list>
    <listname>di-test-xml</listname>
    <type>intranet_list</type>
    <subject>test-etc</subject>
    <owner multiple="1">
      <email>bruno.malaval@uha.fr</email>
    </owner>
  </list>

That's all for me today ..
Thanks a lot

Hi @BrunoMalaval,
Could you please apply this patch and check if the problem you repoted will be solved?

[BrunoMalaval]

HI @ikedas

• It works fine for family list creation.

• Error (missing parameter) if fixed for sympa.pl

But another error when I try to create list without family template (my second sample in first post)

root@lists-diff:/usr/local/sympa/etc# /usr/local/sympa/bin/sympa.pl --create_list  --robot=lists-diff.uha.fr --input_file=/tmp/di-test-xml.xml
create_list [user] template : paramètre manquant
Could not create list

In Sympa documentation, it indicates the tag <type> .. </type> is the name of the template
In my sample, I use the default template intranet_list which is in .../sympa/default/create_list_templates

But perhaps my method or xml file are not good, I don't often use it.
I'm gonna make more tests for this point

Thanks

@BrunoMalaval, could you please show the XML file ('/tmp/di-test-xml.xml') in this case?

[BrunoMalaval]

It was in the first post
Here's the file

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
  <list>
    <listname>di-test-xml</listname>
    <type>intranet_list</type>
    <subject>test-etc</subject>
    <owner multiple="1">
      <email>bruno.malaval@uha.fr</email>
    </owner>
  </list>

@BrunoMalaval, thanks for information.
Could you please apply this additional patch and check if the problem will be solved?

[BrunoMalaval]

It works.
Just need to add <topics> parameter in the xml file, it's mandatory.
And CLI creation works

Thanks a lot
Going to resume tests .....
