18-1 Bug with Empty error logfile
I just brought up a new 2.1.18-1 installation and am geting the "we're sorry but we encountered a bug" page on theadmin interface. /var/log/mail/error is 0-length. Should I turn stealth mode off to get more info possibly?

First, try running Mailman's
bin/check_perms -f
as root and see if it fixes permissions on the log directory/files.
Once permissions are fixed, your "bug" may go away. If not and if there is still no error log entry, try turning off stealth mode.

Yes!Found and fixed three permissions errors. Then I logged in as asministrator and turned up another perms error, but this time it was logged to /var/log/mail/error so I was able to find and fix it. /etc/mailman/adm.pw was +644 owner=root group=roott. check_perms changed it to group=mailman as it should be. All good now, and of course, many thanks. It's always the little things.
