[Mailman-Users] Get to authentication screen, die when page loads

Hi folks,
This one's bugging me: I just installed mailman yesterday, so there's
probably a newbie's explanation for it, but I can't find an answer in
the documentation or FAQs.
1) I can load the admin front page:
<http://www.laniels.org/mailman/admin/>
2) If I select a particular list that I created (click the lone link in
the admin page above), I get prompted for a password, and
3) If I enter the wrong password, I get the "authentication failed"
error, but
4) If I enter the right password, I get
Bug in Mailman version 2.0.12
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,

and I can't continue. That is, I can't do any mailman admin tasks for
any of my lists. I doubt there's actually a bug; it's probably just
newbian problems.
Permissions on my mailman directories look fine:
slaniel at bertrandrussell:/var/lib$ ls -d mailman
drwxrwsr-x 8 root list 4096 Jul 29 12:23 mailman
slaniel at bertrandrussell:/usr/lib/cgi-bin$ ls -d mailman
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 29 10:21 mailman
I think Apache's fine, or I wouldn't have been able to load *any*
mailman admin pages, right?
Any thoughts on what might be the issue here?
Thanks,
Steve
