That's the problem. I'm not sure what's going on, but the issue is in
writing to Mailman's 'subscribe' log. What does

ls -l /path/to/mailman/logs/

show?

Also, it may or may not be helpful, but if you could send me off list
the
/path/to/mailman/qfiles/1445988136.175048+4b651bb8e2ca5a8b65ef1b9f3c4a54e715f0686f.pck
file or alternatevely, post or send me the output from

/path/to/mailman/bin/dumpdb
/path/to/mailman/qfiles/1445988136.175048+4b651bb8e2ca5a8b65ef1b9f3c4a54e715f0686f.pck

it might help.
