and ran bin/withlist -l -a -r fix_url

I still have some problems when subscribing a new user, and concerning message archiving. I will post a separate request for clarity.

After I fixed the problems described in the thread quoted above, I had
the following problems.

 - when subscribing an user (myself) to the "mailman" list via the web
   interface I get the message on the screen

Bug in Mailman version 2.1.11
We're sorry, we hit a bug!

Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of traceback and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but the webmaster can find this information in the Mailman error logs.

    after a while *root* (not me as "mailman-owner" !!) receives a message
    to visit the list control page to accept the subscription request,
    but such page has no pending requests

 - when subscribing an user (myself) to any other list via the web
   interface I get the same "bug" message, but after a while I receive
   the confirmation message, and if I confirm the welcome message,
   and are subscribed

 - I removed ALL lists, because "mailman" was created with newlist
   before I ran fix_url. When I recreate it with newlist, also mailman
   behaves as any other list i.e.

    - "bug message" on the screen
    - nevertheless confirmation e-mail
    - and regular welcome if I confirm

   what stuff in /var/lib/mailman/logs/error is relevant ?

The other question is that if I send a message to a list, the member
receive it, but the message is NOT archived.

   I see that a file appears in qfiles/shunt/

Note that I did not install any crontab (since my machine is just a test arrangement). Are crontabs necessary for the archiver ?


Is there any FAQ or doc which describes what is in logs and qfiles, and how to interpret and dispose of it ?

In particular how do I get rid of all old stuff there (other than doing it manually), so that I'll have only errors after a fresh restart ?

What material from logs/error or qfiles/shunt should be posted to this list for diagnostics (if any) ?
