Guy Van Sanden: Mailman bug after server migration?

$

Dear blogosphere

All my domains moved from Dreamhost's shared hosting plan to a dedicated server (running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS).
Migrating most stuff was pretty straight forward (though time intensive).  

But I'm very much stuck with getting my Mailman mailing lists up and running again.  Dreamhost gave me a tar.gz file for each mailing list that contains a lists and archives directory.  So I copied these over to /var/lib/mailman/lists, changed the ownership, set up aliases and tried out one list.

I had to make some changes to the config to point to the new host instead of Dreamhost's list server, so I exported the config and imported it again with the /usr/sbin/config_list command.  Some URLS not found in the config where still wrong so I did a /usr/sbin/withlist -l -r fix_url

The mailing list is now accepting and sending out mails as it should, but the webinterface is not functioning.  I can reach the login page, but after giving the admin password I get: "Bug in Mailman version 2.1.13 We're sorry, we hit a bug!"

Newly created lists on the server work fine though.

So, I'm stuck at this after midnight and need sleep urgently...  Any ideas would be very welcome though!

Thanks

Guy

#EDIT
This script seems to output the error:  /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mailman/admindb, no idea to the why yet.
