One of your lists has a bad lists/<listname>/config.pck file. If you don't know which is the problem list, /usr/local/mailman/bin/check_db --all --verbose may help you identify it. Possibly moving the config.pck aside and replacing it with the config.pck.last file may solve the problem. If not, perhaps you have a good file somewhere on a system backup. If not, other tools such as bin/config_list and bin/dumpdb will probably fail too so *nix 'strings' may be the only way to retrieve useful information from the file that would help in recreating the list. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
