Zope 2 Beta 3 win32 release and site update...
Hi all. I've updated the Zope.org site for Zope 2 beta 3 and made the win32 binary release available: http://www.zope.org/Download/Releases/Zope-2.0.0b3/ Brian Lloyd brian@digicool.com Software Engineer 540.371.6909 Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com
I have found what appears to be a major problem with the pack/undo/database. If I add a file to the database using the File entry from the New Item drop down list or use webdav to drop the file into the top level Zope folder and then pack the database, the creation of this file is still present in the undoable transactions list after the pack. If I then try to undo the file creation transaction the database becomes corrupted in the first case or it still thinks that the file is present (i.e. it appears in the top level tree) but it cannot be navigated to or viewed, etc in the second case. I have a feeling that this is related to a problem I saw in b1 and the continuing inability of bbb.py to import my existing 1.10.3 database correctly (both of which no-one on the list or DC followed up on - which surprised me given the instability which resulted), but I could be wrong. Can anyone else reproduce it ? My setup is : Zope 2.0.0b3 IE5 NT(SP4) Newly created database (i.e. delete all files in var sub-directory and restart Zope) Robert Leftwich PS Yes, I know patches are gratefully accepted, but I want to make sure this is a genuine problem across the board before investing any time in it. Besides it looks like the kind of problem that someone intimately familiar with the ZODB3 internals should be able to put their finger on very quickly - hint, hint Jim :-)

Can anyone else reproduce it ? Yes I *reproduced* it. My set ups were: Zope 2.0.0b1&3, Win95&98. Default database comes with Zope, IE5.
When I first saw it, I doubt that it comes from the instability of my Win9x boxes, hence decided to wait till new Linux box arrives(which still does not come yet). Now you can sure somebody else can produce the *Zope 2 Beta 1/3 win32 release major problem*. BTW, why the undo(able) list does not disappear when I just pack the defualt database? I could see from the Zope creation by Amos to the Insatallation of ZCatalog by Zope as the undoables after packing the default database. Is it a feature in MS's sense or more profound one? Hope any revealation from DC gurus. LEE Kwan Soo.
