Sorry for being cryptic. By "command line?" I meant what was the command line you typed?
Oh.
bin/withlist -l -r fix_url listname -u hostname.com
But that isn't the most of it. All attempts for the list are stating that no list by that name. Error logs are stating this (from the same timestamp):

And did you run the withlist -r fix_url command as the mailman user?
I normally just run it as the vroot user.
In what context? I.e. what URL or command is reporting no list?
For example: bin/list_members latinteach
No such list: latinteach
You could try
mv config.pck config.pck.2.bak mv config.pck.last config.pck
I tried that. It didn't make any difference.
We had a power outage last night and today we had issues with the lists distributing mail and digesting. I think that I have fixed all the other lists but this list seems to be the only one with this latent problem. I can't figure it out. The messages in the archive seem to be in place (at least I can read them with pine). I created a new list to work around this but when I try to get the members list, it states no such list. So I'm stuck.
What does bin/list_lists report?
What does bin/check_perms run as root report?
What are the permissions on the lists/listname directory itself?
What does bin/dumpdb lists/listname/config.pck report? (You can elide all the membership info. In fact, if you get a reasonable looking report, you can just compare it to that of another list to verify that it looks good.)
