I have the following set-up under which Zope occasionally dies. Zope 2.2.2 (same happened with 2.2.0 and 2.2.1) RedHat Linux 6.2 Apache 1.3.12 - with fastcgi/2.2.8 and OpenSSL/0.95a I'm running Zope with Fastcgi and using Apache rewrite rules to redirect all URLs that contain "manage" to https. It seems to work fine except on occasion Zope will die with the following error: "ZServer uncaptured python exception, closing channel <FCGIChannel connected 127.0.0.1:2198 at 87195b> (socket.error:(32, 'Broken pipe') [path_to_Zope/Zserver/medusa/asynchat.py|initiate_send||211] [path_to_Zope/Zserver/medusa/asynchat.py|send|274]) This doesn't always mean the server is dead but it is the only error I can trap with debug turned on. I am starting the Zope server with the -Z option. Ideas. I'm about ready to start making the server more widely available but cannot if the server is unreliable. Ideas, strategies, options?
