Evidently, you didn't move anything from archives/private/ on the old server, and you moved the lists/LISTNAME/config.pck files. This is the problem. Creating a new list also creates the directories archives/private/LISTNAME/ and archives/private/LISTNAME.mbox/ and the file archives/private/LISTNAME/index.html with the empty archive template. The fact that you have no /usr/local/mailman/archives/private/mto-scheduled.mbox/ directory is responsible for the above error. create it with mode 2775 and Mailman's group. That will get past the above error. Im not sure if the missing archives/private/LISTNAME/ directory will cause a problem or not, but to be on the safe side, you can create it too. Or you can just move the archives/private/LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox files from the old server and run bin/arch LISTNAME to build the pipermail archive. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
