This is in relation to the thread referred to in the subject: http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope/2003-February/131336.html We recently came across this same problem, and after a bit of digging I've got it fixed (for us at least). What I did was comment out the break at around line 576 in ZODB/FileStorage.py. This break was added between versions 2.6.0 and 2.6.1. For grepping purposes, here's a copy of the break and its preceeding comment: # Once we've found the data we are looking for, # we can stop chasing backpointers. break Just comment out that break and all should be good to go. I've attached a Hotfix style patch for the lazy. :) -- John Eikenberry [jae@kavi.com] ______________________________________________________________ "A society that will trade a little liberty for a little order will deserve neither and lose both." --B.
