That would suffer from pack bugs. It also has security vulnerabilities, you realyl should upgrade...
I know - we're moving up and onto an new machine in the next few days - just my luck that this should happen beforehand... Would the vunerabilities enable this particular outcome (the deletion of a folder without storing undo information)?
I have tried removing/regenerating the Data.fs.index I have tried packing the database (on a backup copy of the Data.fs) - (I read somewhere this might help with a POSkey error?)
Do you HAVE a POSKeyError?
Not as far as I know - but I'm not clear as to how I would find out... I'm still wrestling to understand the ZODB diagnostic scripts... Thanks for your thoughts Rupert
