Migration of a Mailinglist not possible

djimno

New Pleskian
Hello.

i have a problem. I want migrate a mailinglist from Server A to Server B, both with Plest 12.5. I get always the error:

"Execution of /opt/psa/admin/plib/api-cli/maillist.php --create listname -domain domain.de -notify false -email admin@domain.de -passwd '' -passwd_type encrypted -ignore-nonexistent-options failed with return code 1. Stderr is Can not create new mailing list: Mailing list already exists. "

What can i do?
 
What about removing mailing list with this name from Server B before migration?
 
But, the first Servermigration aborted. And now it is not possible. I think, that somewhere in the pleskdeepness, the list exist. When i want to delete the list on the server with ssh, mailman says, that the listname not exist.
 
What sort of output following SQL query on Server B psa database:

mysql> select * from MailLists where name = 'mailinglistname';

?
