[Mailman-Users] Suddenly - a "bug"

[Greg Westin]

I just tried to add a new list, and when I went to the web interface, it
didn't work.  I can't figure out what has changed recently , except that I
repartitioned my hard drive, so I copied the info off and then replaced
it.

Can anyone suggest some things I can check?  I tried re-installing, which
didn't seem to work, though I could have done it wrong.

Nothing in my mailman log, but an entry in the apache error log shows that
it couldn't write to the mailman log for some reason.  It may not be a
good idea for me to publicly send out all the info from my server logs,
but ignorance is bliss.  The most recent entry from my apache error log is
below.  If you have any ideas for me, please help!
