There have been several postings here regarding problems with the threads package on RH9; RH9 supposedly has new and/or substantially upgraded thread support. The symptoms you report are similar to those observed by other RH9 users. One user reported getting OK performance by upgrading to the latest patch level. I'd planned to migrate to RH9 which is reputed to be a substantial upgrade over RH7.3 (known to be stable) and RH8 (known to be OK) but have held off due to undertainties about the threads problem and Zope.

My first inclination is to build zope from source and see if that has the same issues.

I have installed Zope on a Red Hat 9 server, set ownership of everything to myself, installed CMF and CMFPlone. I can start up (running as myself), and initially everything seems to be running fine. However, after clicking around a few spots on the /manage page or a test plone site everything grinds to a halt. The Z2.log shows no more requests, stupid.log (Error severity level = 0) shows no further entries besides the usual startup INFO(0) entries, the server doesn't respond any more.
The only thing to do is to stop and start (from command line, killing process), and if that doesn't work I manually delete the temp files/lock files from the /opt/zope/var, and that does the trick.
I installed basically the same deal on RH 8 on a different machine and it worked like a charm. Do you know of any incompatibilities with RH9? Do the downloaded binaries not work? Or is it some other problem entirely?
Thanks in advance for your help,
