On my server, /var/mailman/lists/mailman is a directory for the list MM 2.1.3 wanted created when we installed, and which is called "mailman." Inside that directory is:
-rw-rw---- 1 mailman mailman 4026 Oct 7 12:00 config.pck -rw-rw---- 1 mailman mailman 4026 Oct 7 12:00 config.pck.last -rw-rw-r-- 1 apache mailman 29 Oct 6 16:15 request.db
That is it (sorry, should have indicated it was a directory) and it the files and permissions look right.
Is that what you're saying needs to be recreated if it's not there, Paul? And if it's missing, wouldn't ./newlist be all that one needs to do to create it?
I see you said you created a list, I assume you recreated the mailman list? If bin/mailmanctl start still give you an error about not having a site list it's because something is looking or pointing in the wrong place. What that might be is beyond my limited powers.
