... I can reproduce the behaviour very easily... after I pack and the 'ZeoServer1' folder disappears i do the following:
- stop zope - delete Data.fs - rename Data.fs.old to Data.fs - start zope
And the ZeoServer1 folder is back. I then pack zope and the ZeoServer1 folder disappears again. I can do this again and again and again.
If your "Data.fs.old" is not too large (not larger than 1 MB) and on the path to the "ZeoServer1" are only standard Zope objects, you could send it to me for investigation ([bg]zip it, to make it smaller).
Thanks for the very kind offer but the Data.fs file is 53Mb before packing and 7.8Mb after packing. I tried tar/gzip but the 53Mb only dropped down to 8.9Mb. Thanks again for the offer. Jonathan
