I suppose the simplest workaround would be to manage the pipes and htmldoc process myself rather than delegating it to popenN().

sounds like you might be getting pipe lock where two streams are blocking and so locking everything up... Have a look at this: http://cvs.zope.org/Packages/TestScripts/autotester.py.diff?r1=1.6&r2=1.7 ...which solved the problem outside of Zope when I ran into it. Be interesting to see how it fares fro mwithin Zope... cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
