Hello mark

This is the complete trace:

I found that the reconstruction works properly if set locale to el_GR.utf8 with " export LC_ALL=el_GR.utf8". The original system locale environment was:

LANG=el_GR.ISO8859-7 LC_CTYPE=el_GR.ISO8859-7 LC_NUMERIC=el_GR.ISO8859-7 LC_TIME=el_GR.ISO8859-7 LC_COLLATE=el_GR.ISO8859-7 LC_MONETARY=el_GR.ISO8859-7 LC_MESSAGES=C LC_PAPER="el_GR.ISO8859-7" LC_NAME="el_GR.ISO8859-7" LC_ADDRESS="el_GR.ISO8859-7" LC_TELEPHONE="el_GR.ISO8859-7" LC_MEASUREMENT="el_GR.ISO8859-7" LC_IDENTIFICATION="el_GR.ISO8859-7" LC_ALL=

Thank you for your attention. Antonis

Hello mailman users

We have a mailman version 2.1.22 installation. We try to reconstruct a mail list archive with command 'arch --wipe listname' and receive the following error.

#00000 <F60795D9B7521C478F6F9174A9183DC94279D62D@MAIL.cti.gr> ÎÏίθμηÏη άÏθÏÏν ιÏÏ Î¿ÏικÏν αÏÏείÏν

There seems to be some character encoding issue here, but ...

2013-February Pickling archive state into /var/mailman/archives/private/tenders/pipermail.pck Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/mailman/bin/arch", line 201, in <module> main() File "/var/mailman/bin/arch", line 189, in main archiver.processUnixMailbox(fp, start, end) File "/var/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py", line 596, in processUnixMailbox

This traceback is incomplete. Please post the complete traceback, and if possible, the correct rendering of the

ÎÏίθμηÏη άÏθÏÏν ιÏÏ ...

stuff. Or is that perhaps some garbled rendering of

Αρίθμηση άρθρων ιστορικών αρχείων

Also, is other stuff missing. I.e., is there more between "2013-February" and "Pickling archive state into ..."

Normally, I would expect three lines like

#nnnnnn <message-id> figuring article archives yyyy-Month

for each message in the mbox followed by something like

Updating index files for archive [yyyy-Month] Date Subject Author Thread Computing threaded index Updating HTML for article n1 Updating HTML for article n2 ...

for each month in the archive and then finally, the

Pickling archive state into ...

line.

I really need the complete traceback to begin to say more.
