Hi,

Any ideas?

/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/lists/satriani_satch-list.com/config.db

Check the permissions that file with a ls -l

 

[WildWayz]

wierd

fixed it with
/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/bin/check_perms -f

at the end it finished with this
Problems found: 3107
Re-run as uid 502 (or root) with -f flag to fix

MailMan page now loads but so far mail hasn\'t come through to me that I just sent.

Hmmmm plot thickens

Also cannot access
http://insomnia.pcnoc.net/mailman/admin/satriani_satch-list.com/

It shows the password page, but when I enter it and click the submit button, the page hangs and eventually I get a timed out page.

Looks like it is only this account - another mailing list is working fine.

Any ideas how to backup the settings/members and archives so I can delete and re-add it?

I dunno what happened when I went to bed, but I woke up and it was all working :D

I was on build 23 at the time, and the problem was there when I upgraded to it, but now it is on build 26 and all is working.
