Error reported on server
by Gary Duke Speer 01 Jul '04

Would someone kindly refer me to where the Zope errors are documented? I need to parse the message into terms I understand and figure out why errors of the following style are being reported frequently on the server and how to trace & debug them. Thank you, Gary ------ 2004-07-01T09:54:04 ERROR(200) ZServer uncaptured python exception, closing channel <ZServer.HTTPServer.zhttp_channel connected 192.168.2.3:4358 at 0x1abf70c channel#: 70 requests:> (socket.error:(10053, 'Software caused connection abort')[C:\Program Files\Zope261\ZServer\medusa\asynchat.py|handle_read|83] [C:\PROGRA~1\ZOPE261\ZServer\medusa\http_server.py|recv|423] [C:\PROGRA~1\ZOPE261\ZServer\medusa\asyncore.py|recv|361])

Who's experiencing FileStorage corruption?
by Tim Peters 01 Jul '04

01 Jul '04

[follow-ups to zodb-dev(a)zope.org, please] We (Zope Corp) occasionally get reports of FileStorage (Data.fs) corruption of kinds that aren't understood, and that are never seen in Zope Corp's own Zope deployments, neither in extreme artificial stress tests. We take corruption very seriously, and there are no known bugs in the current releases of ZODB that can cause corruption. Therefore we're very keen to investigate cases that may still exist. By "corruption", I mean what corruption conventionally means for any file: the Data.fs and/or Data.fs.index file is damaged at the byte level, as if someone had overwritten some region (or regions) with nonsense bytes. Of course this can be a disaster when it occurs. Visible symptoms may include: + FileStorage.py raises CorruptedDataError. + FileStorage.py passes on this exception from Python's struct module: error: unpack str size does not match format The only currently known causes for these are hardware problems (bad disk, bad disk controller, loose connection, flaky memory chip) and equivalently fatal system software bugs (buggy system disk driver, buggy system I/O libraries, buggy third-party software). If you experience corruption not due to such causes beyond ZODB's control(*), we want to hear about it! The best place to report a case is on the Zope Collector: http://collector.zope.org/Zope with topic "Database". Because database files can be very large, and may contain sensitive data, please don't attach them to the report; you should be willing to let us get copies of them privately, though. (*) How do you know whether the cause is beyond ZODB's control? You probably can't, and that's fine. A case where you can: the last time Jim Fulton tried to track one of these down, the customer's system was in such bad shape that they were unable to make a readable tar file containing their database files: attempts to do so created corrupt *tar* files. If I/O on your system is plain broken, then no, FileStorage isn't going to work either.

High quality hosting
by Mike Combs 01 Jul '04

01 Jul '04

I'm a Zope/Plone newbie, making the transition from HTML/Perl. I'm having a hard time finding a Zope hosting company that provides the kind of support I'm used to getting. I've read through a lot of http://zope.org/Resources/ZSP, but I thought I might get better suggestions here. Here's what I'd like: * 7x24 phone support * Hosting at a secure site with redundency * Trouble-ticket tracking for emailed inquiries In terms of the level of support, I'm not after over-the-phone tutorials. But if I ask for more disk, or the account to be restored from backups, or for some standard feature of their service, I'd like to get an acknowledgement within 30 minutes and a promise of when the service will be performed. I get this kind of service today in the non-Zope world for $20 to $50/month. I consider $20-$50 inexpensive. My (frustrating) experience so far trying to find a Zope host has been either: * Small, inexpensive, host the server in the back of the office, no support * Medium, inexpensive, secure hosting, email-only slow-to-respond support * Hundreds of dollars a month overkill Thanks in advance, ...mike

RE: [Zope] Submit Button

Any help would be greatly > appreciated. Thanks. In order of (my) preference - 1) Don't tie the button label to the method called. Then you can have different buttons call the same method. 2) Use <button> elements rather than <input> elements. Button elements display their text content as the label. Cheers, Tom P

Awarization
by Chris Calloway 01 Jul '04

01 Jul '04

What is the meaning of the word "Awarization?" This word is often thrown in as a heading in Zope product Readme files. As in "CMF/Plone Awarization." A cursory search of the web only reveals usage of the word, not its meaning. -- Sincerely, Chris Calloway http://www.seacoos.org office: 17-6 Venable Hall phone: (919) 962-4323 mail: CB #3056, 12 Howell Hall, UNC, Chapel Hill, NC 27599
