.SH NAME
check_db \- Check a Mailman mailing list's config database file for integrity.
.\"=====================================================================
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B check_db
[-a]
[-v]
[-h]
[\fIlistname\fP [\fIlistname\fP ...]]
.\"=====================================================================
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B check_db
checks a list's config database file for integrity.
.PP
All of the following files are checked:
.RS
config.pck
config.pck.last
config.db
config.db.last
config.safety
.RE
.PP
It's okay if any of these are missing. config.pck and config.pck.last are
pickled versions of the config database file for 2.1a3 and beyond. config.db
and config.db.last are used in all earlier versions, and these are Python
marshals. config.safety is a pickle written by 2.1a3 and beyond when the
primary config.pck file could not be read.
.\"=====================================================================
.SH OPTIONS
.IP "--all, -a"
Check the databases for all lists. Otherwise only the lists named on
the command line are checked.
.IP "--verbose, -v"
Verbose output. The state of every tested file is printed.
Otherwise only corrupt files are displayed.
.IP "--help, -h"
Print help text and exit.
