Chris, can you explain this phenomena a little more (I'll put it in the docs). I *think* you mean that during versioned operations that the sessions written to the RAM database aren't versioned (and they aren't). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Withers" <chrisw@nipltd.com> To: "Edmund Goppelt" <goppelt@goppelt.net> Cc: <zope-dev@zope.org> Sent: Sunday, March 25, 2001 10:41 AM Subject: Re: [Zope-dev] Are Versions Reliable?

The users themselves do not write, but periodically an External Method receives email via xml and parses it into a bunch of new Zope objects. Would this cause trouble with Versions?
Yes
2. You don't use mounted storages. In particular, Core Session Tracking and Version objects seem to have quite a bad time of it when played with together, but it's understandable when you think about how CST works.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by mounted storage. The site makes use of LocalFS--is this the kind of thing you are talking about?
No
I'm curious how Versions failed for you when using mounted storage, etc. Were you unable to roll back changes?
Didn't need to
Were changes you made lost?
Onyl the session data, which is supposed to be temporary anyway.
Was your database corrupted?
No, only the RAM-based mounted storage used by Core Session Tracking. restarting the Zope server solved the problem.
cheers,
Chris
