Hi,
I rebuilt mailman-2.1.5 to apply a patch (to handle UnicodeError in CodeRunner.py and ToDigest.py). AFAIK, I didn't change anything else.
Now it's b0rked and I don't see why.
In a nutshell, when I go to my http://www.mydomain.com/mailman/admin/mylist, I get:
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/mailman/logs/error'
FWIW, googling for the problem turns up a couple of other lists that are(or have been) b0rked in the same manner.
Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Found the solution! All is now well.
"check_perms" found approx 2000 files having permissions it didn't like and "check_perms -f" fixed them. Mostly it was gid "root" vs "mailman".
