Hi. I've been attempting to develop products with Zope 2.9, and am finding it increasingly difficult and slow to do so as Product refreshing no longer works.
Google shows up a few results from mailing lists with somewhat negative responses (The gist I'm getting is that no-one 'in the know' wants to worry about fixing it, as they don't see a real need for it).
Yeah, too bad, but making it better is complicated, and it can never be perfect anyway.
Another major issue I've discovered is Zope hosting. We reguarly deploy custom sites on shared zope environments, and having to restart an entire server just to update one product severely breaks our uptime guarentee.
You mean you can't allow the server even to be down for the less than a minute it takes to restart it? I would honestly be very interested in knowing what kind of systems you run that has that sort of requirements. But in any case, as mentioned by others here, multiple ZEO-clients and load balancing fixes this for most cases.
I'm hoping I can garner some support to get the zope developers to fix the problem.
Well, I'm sure it can be improved by throwing money on the right people... ;) -- Lennart Regebro, Nuxeo http://www.nuxeo.com/ CPS Content Management http://www.cps-project.org/
