Can you administer other lists? Does mailman write to other log files successfully? Does /usr/local/mailman/logs/error exist? if so, you might try moving it elsewhere and let Mailman create a new one and see if that helps. I suspect there is some error in the config.pck or some other file for the list and then the failed attempt to log *that* error is what you see on the bug page. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
