After that I did a lot on Zope, including stuff in this parent dir of the previous plone site. When I try to undo things, I often have undoable transaction errors, even when I start with the last ten transactions, I constantly get errors. Am I able to restore the database to state of a certain date? Yes, provided you have not repacked the database. Stop Zope, make backup copies, and so forth so you can return to the current state if you need to. Use the tools in the utilities/ZODB and/or lib/python/ZODB to examine the database. I've used fsrecover.py. Determine the size of Data.fs at the point you want to rollback to. Use a utility (I used dd under linux) to truncate Data.fs to that size. Bring up Zope using the truncated Data.fs and you should be back in business.

Are there any formulator gurus here? The formulator mailing list seems dead, and I have some pressing questions. Thanks. -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:" net@madduck NOTE: The pgp.net keyservers and their mirrors are broken!
