[Mailman-Users] config.db path mismatch

[Ashley M. Kirchner]

    One of my admins decided reinstall mailman into a new directory and
just *moved* the lists from one (old) directory to the other (new)
directory. However, now we're faced with the fact that bits and piece of
Mailman don't work (what else is new when you move things without
thinking).

    The question now is, how can I fix the config.db file for some of
these lists?  Basically, it's failing on the archival linking.

    Mailman's error is:

----------
File "/home/users/mailman/Mailman/Archiver/Archiver.py", line 42, in
makelink
  os.symlink(old, new)
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
----------


    When I look in one of the list's config.db, I see these defined:

----------
'archive_directory': '/mailman/archives/private/palladium',
'private_archive_file_dir': '/mailman/archives/private/palladium.mbox',
'public_archive_file_dir': '/mailman/archives/public',
----------

    And I need to change those to reflect the new path (which now is
/home/users/mailman/...)

    Can that be done, somehow?
