1. If i want to create a list, there is another mystery, the "List creator's
password", which i never had given. If i look into the doc in:

http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node45.html

they send me to (7):

http://www.list.org/mailman-install/customizing.html#customizing

where there is no mention at all about this. So i had to set it myself with
"mmsitepass".

By the way, it is not .../mailman/cgi-bin but .../cgi-bin/mailman.

3. When i create the new list i get:

"Bug in Mailman version 2.1.9
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."


But with list_lists i can see that the list was created (without
notification mail).

Is this true? A "bug" in Mailman?

In the error log of mailman i find:

But the rights of virtual-mailman seem ok:

ls -l /var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman
-rw-rw---- 1 www-data list 1,6K 2010-07-10 12:07 virtual-mailman


But anyway, i can create lists with newlist, i don't need the webinterface,
so this is not a big problem.
