Hey folks,
I'm having trouble with the web interface again. I added a couple new lists today and stopped/started both fetchmail and mailman to make sure they would pick up the new addresses. It appears that my lists are still running and the pipermail archives are still working, but I can't get in to the admin via the web on any lists, including the new ones. I'm getting the "Bug in Mailman version 2.1.9" screen. Everything was good until I stopped/started.
I'm running Apache2. NOT SELinux.
I've done permission fixes.
I've looked for corrupt config files using:
echo > noop.py "def noop(mlist): return" ./withlist -a -r noop
(all showed "unlocked")
I've checked the logs. No sign of anything specific there.
I can't find the cause.

Stopping and starting Mailman has no effect on the web interface unless somehow a config.pck got corrupted in the process.
What is in Mailman's error log? Whenever you get the "Bug in Mailman ..." response on the web interface, you have to find the corresponding error and traceback in Mailman's error log. That may be only the beginning of diagnosing the problem, but without that, it could be literally anything.

Thanks, I got that figured out yesterday. I went ahead and did an update to 2.1.11 and got that and a few other little glitches cleared up.
