If you're lucky, it's just the ZODB index file that got corrupted, so try deleting 'Data.fs.index', and hope it rebuilds itself correctly when restarting. I probably don't have to tell you this but do it on a copy of your instance.
thanks but nope that's not it
Try removing the reference from the parent folder, without accessing the bad object:
id = 'BadId' folder._objects=tuple(filter(lambda i,n=id: i['id']!=n, folder._objects)) delattr(folder, id)
'manage_delObjects', calls '_getOb' to do additional checks before deleting an object, and in your case this will give a POSKeyError.
You'll be left with a dangling reference, but at least siblings of the bad folder will be accessible again.
Actually the reference will be gone, so the bad object should get packed away if I'm not mistaken. -- Roché Compaan Upfront Systems http://www.upfrontsystems.co.za
