I'm witnessing very strange behaviour on one box and was asked to help. On the box is running a zope cmf-site that refuses to start if softlimit is set, even though the softlimit would be set quite high. This is extremely strange since the service itself ( afaik from the people who manage it ) doesn't want to hog large amounts of memory or when running consume lots of it. If softlimit is set on the startscript then zope does start, but produces only 'internal server error' message to requests. Any help would be appreciated. Details below: kernel 2.4.18-27.7.x daemontools-0.76 Python 2.1.3 zope 2.6.0 Starting Zope: cd $INSTANCE_HOME /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 536870912 \ /usr/bin/python2.1 z2.py \ -p $INSTANCE_HOME/Zope.cgi \ -u zope \ -z $INSTANCE_HOME \ -Z 1 \ -L fi_FI@EURO.ISO-8859-1 \ -l $INSTANCE_HOME/var/Z2.log \ >> $INSTANCE_HOME/var/Z2.log 2>&1 \ -- -huima
