I realized that I was actually missing mylist in the private archives.
Once I issued bin/arch mylist it successfully rebuilt the archive. Thanks!

I am wanting to rebuild an archive but when I issue the following
command either as mailman or root:
bin/arch --wipe mylist
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mylist.mbox/mylist.mbox
I get the following error:

I believe this one archive has not been working for a very long time.
The permissions are:
drwxrwsr-x 2 mailman mailman 4096 Nov 19 12:11 .
drwxrws--x 200 mailman mailman 12288 Nov 19 12:14 ..
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mailman mailman 502357 Sep 1 04:00 mylist
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mylist should be a directory, not a
file.
First make sure that
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mylist.mbox/mylist.mbox looks like
it actually contains all the archived messages. Then look at
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mylist and see what it is. If you
think you might want to keep it,
mv /usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mylist somewhere/else
otherwise, just
rm /usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mylist
Then do
bin/arch mylist
without the --wipe option. You also don't need to specify
/usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mylist.mbox/mylist.mbox as the
input as that is the defauly for 'mylist'.
