I followed instructions provided here. Well, I rebooted the server and I'm getting the same error again at the web page of
"Mailman REST API not available. Please start Mailman core."
I again found locks in /opt/mailman/mm/var/locks . Once I removed them I could start mailman.
Perhaps I made a boo boo. I want mailman to start without locks upon reboot.
Help! (thanks)

That worked.
Now on https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html#starting-m ailman -automatically it says
"Pay attention to the config file output above and make sure that you see /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg there. If the config path is different, you should make sure to create a new config file at /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg and re-run the command."
Well...mailman info yields
GNU Mailman 3.3.5 (Tom Sawyer) Python 3.7.3 (default, Mar 23 2024, 16:12:05) [GCC 8.3.0] config file: /opt/mailman/mm/mailman.cfg db url: postgres://mailman:5DqTHnv8hUQSdd@localhost/mailman devmode: DISABLED REST root url: http://localhost:8001/3.1/ REST credentials: restadmin:restpass
Should I create a new config file at /etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg ?
You can, but the easiest thing is just replace the line
Environment="MAILMAN_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/mailman3/mailman.cfg"
in /etc/systemd/system/mailman3.service with
Environment="MAILMAN_CONFIG_FILE=/opt/mailman/mm/mailman.cfg"
