mailmanctl on FreeBSD?

I've just upgraded Plesk 7.1.7 to 7.5.4. Everything works fine (after some Plesk kicking and bashing), except for Mailman. I get the error message "Bug in Mailman version 2.0.13" "We're sorry, we hit a bug!"

First thing I noticed is that mailman simply isn't running when I execute "ps aux | grep mailman".

I'd say: lets restart Mailman using "mailmanctl", but the problem is: I can't even find it on the system! (Running FreeBSD 4.9.)

Shouldn't I be seeing mailmanctl on FreeBSD? If I should, how can I make it appear? Maybe something else is wrong?

(check_perms didn't find anything by the way)
 
Yes, but unfortunately that didn't do the trick.

# ./check_perms -f
No problems found

The permissions on the cron folder are correct too. But shouldn't I be seeing some daemon in the process list?
 
No, mailman isen't running as a Daemon - its runned thru Qmail piping system.
 
How could a cron task not being executed result in such an error page then? :confused:
 
The ones in /usr/local/psa/mailman/cron I mean... Even it that had the wrong permissions, how would that affect the web front? It's a sub question, just out of curiosity. In any case, it didn't help. :(

Shouldn't Mailman be dumping a log file somewhere? I've checked /usr/local/psa/mailman/logs/error, but the latest entry was this one:
