the mysterious shutdown thingi have been experiencing that too. but i noticed that the zope process is slowly increasing its memory consumption that my 500MB swap file was turned to zero. i therefore increased the swapfile to 1GB. it hasn't stopped ever since. based on our visitor access, our swap file reached 800MB. oh by the way, our servers have 128MB ram. that could also be it. we also have the servers in zeo. the main server hasn't stopped running with a 400MB swap file since the client servers with 1GB swap files are the ones taking the load. good luck!

concerning this thread...
I'm experiencing very, very similar symptoms. I have zope installed with the newest src 2.3.2 (i think) running with apache and pcgi and have been having periodic shutdowns of zope.....I've been tailing the logs for apache and zope, and the only thing is after zope goes down, apache logs that it can't be reached....restarting zope works fine, and everything marches on.....unfortunately this can't be the case after our projected june 1st lauch of the a website.....I'd love to find the solution to this problem, or any hints about where or what to log to even identify the cause.
we are running zope 2.3.2 in /opt/zope with apache from the SuSE 7.1 distribution....I've loaded the mod_python, and php, and backhand and some others, but I think only the pcgi and python have anything to do with zope...
on top of the basic installation, I have installed Zcatalog, tinytables plus, squishdot, the zope hotfix, and yihaw
somewhere in one of these installations was added another python directory (and I think this contributes to some or our problems, but I don't know how to prove it or change it) now, under zope we have a python (which is version 2) and a python 1.5.2 directory .....I'm not sure which piece may be calling which version, and which one maybe causing the shutdown.....
any enlightenment will be greatly greatly greatly appreciated.

Hi Ben,
no this is completly different to your problem. Dont know why these threads are intermixed.
The problem below is zope not responding to requests but still beeing running.
Your problem is different:
zope stops running instantly.
So I expect something in your environment and/or python version. Do you have a plain install or did you install additionally products with zope?
