... This post wasn't really about that however, I was more asking if anyone knew why no strack trace was being returned for the XMLRPC call, when under normal circumstances it is? Should I raise a bug for this? In Zope before 2.6, stack traces are badly integrated -- outside of the HTML tag. Many people complain that they are shown at all (because of security/privacy concerns).
It is quite natural that in the normal case (unless you are debugging), XML-RPC responses should not contain track traces as the XML-RPC client can not do much with them. I think, with Zope 2.6, you can much better control what happens with exceptions and the associated stack traces, at least for normal HTTP requests (not sure about XML-RPC, but hopefully there, too). You should be able to log the stack traces on the server and analyse them in the servers log file. Dieter
