We have had a HD crash and I had to bring the data back from a backup. I fixed permissions, etc and it should work well now but on the website I get Bug in Mailman version 2.1.10

We're sorry, we hit a bug!

Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of traceback and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but the webmaster can find this information in the Mailman error logs.

and in error logs I can see this:

Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): Traceback (most recent call last): Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): File "/usr/local/mailman/cron/gate_news", line 284, in <module> Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): main() Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): File "/usr/local/mailman/cron/gate_news", line 264, in main Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): process_lists(lock) Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): File "/usr/local/mailman/cron/gate_news", line 199, in process_lists Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): mlist = MailList.MailList(listname, lock=0) Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 130, in __init__ Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): self.Load() Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 668, in Load Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): self.CheckVersion(dict) Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 707, in CheckVersion Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): if self.data_version >= mm_cfg.DATA_FILE_VERSION: Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): File "/usr/local/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 146, in __getattr__ Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): raise AttributeError, name Jun 19 11:05:01 2008 gate_news(30949): AttributeError : data_version

This specific traceback is from cron/gate_news (there's probably one of these every 5 minutes), not from the web CGI, but the error is probably the same.

The issue above is a corrupt config.pck file for some list. To find which list, cd to Mailman's bin/ directory and do

echo > noop.py "def noop(mlist): return" ./withlist -a -r noop
