People have complained of this problem when running behind Apache. It has a request timeout. Zope itself however, does not. You could test the time issue by writing an external method that does something like (pseudo-python): def yawn(): time.sleep(5min) os.write('/tmp/yawn', time.rightnow()) There is also the possibility you have shell limits set and are exeeding them (Unix systems only).

Hello all: I'm having a problem with an external method that executes a heavy process. The action it tries to complete fails, (concretely, split an avifile with divx in several files using avisplit, a tool from transcode package). If the file I try to split is little, all works ok...
I use os.system to do this task... If I execute the same code outside zope, all works fine, with big files or less big files...
Anybody can help me? -- Microsoft merges technologoies: Windows CE + Windows ME + Windows NT = Windows CEMENT
