Ok, it hangs zope. Now I can hang it when I want.
Scarey that this is a good thing.
yes, but it's very useful...
I'm not really sure, but I don't think it crashes the thread/Zope it just spins it out. Therefore the client (in this case your script) thinks that it will get there eventually and just waits. It's not that the thread or Zope isn't there, it's just really busy.
I don't know if you're right because when I launch your dtml method Zope seems to be completely frozen, even for other browsers from somewhere else so maybe more than one Zope thread is blocked.
BTW, if you kill that spinning thread, Zope returns to normal op.
Not tested. How do you detect which thread to kill ? Anyway I'm glad your method helped me debug the program which works fine for me now. bye, and thanks again. Jerome
