Hello
I've seen a few messages with this error in the searchable archive, but
no responses. I've tried to list as much info as I can below. The setup
was working fine until a couple of days ago when an automatic script for
subscribe/unsubscribe suddenly seemed to break things. However the
server had some new RAM put in it recently and may have been rebooted
without a proper shutdown. It's in a colocated hosting facility and the
techs there don't seem too bright sometimes...
/usr/local/mailman/bin# ./version
Using Mailman version: 2.1.2 --> should I upgrade? I feel I should fix
the problem first.
/usr/local/mailman/bin# ./list_lists
Traceback (most recent call last):

(add_members, check_db, remove_members all give similar errors)
Kernel/OS Linux 2.4.18-bf2.4 (Debian)
Mailman installed from source.
This was working fine earlier. Couple of observations

(I deleted a couple of listname.hostname.nnn lock files to see if it
would help, it didn't)

difference).
