Re: [Zope] the day of zope headaches

Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource.

IOError

Sorry, a Zope error occurred.

such a very helpful message. this happened while reindexing the ZCatalog

View the HTML source for the error page - the Python traceback contained in there will be more helpful. However, the last time I had an IOError while re-indexing a ZCatalog was when Python was ran out of space in the /tmp dir (4600 objects, 100 MB /tmp partition). What I did was edit Python's tempfile.py file (contained at /usr/lib/python1.5/tempfile.py on Debian systems) from: attempdirs = ['/usr/tmp', '/tmp', pwd] To: attempdirs = ['/var/tmp', '/usr/tmp', '/tmp', pwd] -- Kevin Teague, Zopista http://www.stormix.com
