When you say "mailman refuse" do you mean that you just cannot see the HTML 
archives or is there some problem being logged on the $prefix/logs/error log.

The configuration variable ARCHIVE_TO_MBOX should have the value 2 assigned 
to it to get archiving to both mbox and pipermail (internal archiver 
generating HTML archives)

Check in your $prefix/Mailman/Defaults.py and that the value their has not 
been overridden in $prefix/Mailman/mm_cfg.py

Are you saying that the directory $varprefix/data/private/listname.mbox 
exists bu there is no directory $varprefix/data/private/listname (which is 
where the pipermail generated HTML archive pages should be) ?

Have you tried running $prefix/bin/arch listname ?

What console output does it generate ?
