Two of my lists arent working. The error log says:

What could have caused this and how do I fix it ?
Sounds like the config.db for the lists somehow got corrupted. I haven't seen this happen to any of the python.org or other lists i run (mostly 1.0b4, some with the current development code). Did you find any prior errors in the error log? Any abnormal incidents on the host leading up to it??
If you'd like, you could send me a (mime-attached or uuencoded tar archive) copy of the config.db files for each of the lists, and i can see if there's anything i can glean, and salvalge, from them...
