Whenever Zope is started automatically from the rc3.d scripts, it appears to me that is starts in a "mode" that uses pcgi.so (pcgi socket mode...?). By some reason, my application fails in this mode, specially when UPDATING records on the PostgreSQL database (not when creating or deleting records). After some attempts, Zope crashes and the process dissapear from the "ps aux" table. If I delete the pcgi.so and pcgi.pid (from the /usr/local/Zope/var directory), and re-start Zope (logged as nobody) and using the usual "start" command. Everything works fine. In other words, Zope behaves strange when started automatically at boot time. Question is: Does any of you knows how to get rid of this pcgi.so using mode at system startup. ? Where did I miss some configuration ? Any extra comments are very welcome. Thanks in advance and regards. Felipe Barousse
