Hi, Is there any way to catch the error from a Zope Database Adapter and restart it ? I'm experiencing what I suspect are timeout problems (sometimes a bunch of imapd's drive the load to >10 and make the computer really slow). The symptom is that at some point I get a traceback from _pgmodule instead of nice page. The only way to fix it after that is going to manage screens and shutdown/startup the connection I would like to catch this exception and do the shutdown/startup automatically (and perhaps log that it happened) Or would the only reasonable place to do such things be inside the DA ? The latter should not be too hard, just try: to send an empty query before the real one (con.query("")) and in except: open a new one (and log the error if desired) The overhead should be almost nothing, at least when using domain sockets. --------------- Hannu
