I stop the Zope service, copy back my old data.fs, and the problem recurs.
Aha! you are running as a service. that makes a difference
Unfortunately that doesn't happen to be my problem. It crashes even when I run it as a batch file. I've tried a fresh installation. Okay. Then I copy my data.fs across without any of the optional products. Add Tiny tables. Okay. Then I add the ZODBC adapter, and wham, it dies. I recall now that I have seen, and reported this problem before. I have a search interface to my 30Mb database, and when users were entering single characters such as 'a', then the following query select * from mytable where comments like '%a%' also killed python.exe with the same error message. I'll have to do some more testing to see what is going on. -- Regards, Graham Chiu gchiu<at>compkarori.co.nz http://www.compkarori.com/dynamo - The Homebuilt Dynamo http://www.compkarori.com/dbase - The dBase bulletin
