then start investigating the nature of the damage with fstest.py and fsrefs.py.
K, now I don't mean to sound stupid, but I inherited a Zope install, and I know absolutely nothing about: (a) python (b) Zope (c) the application we run on this platform (MailManager) ... so any assistance you can give would be appreciated.:-) If I run fstest.py I get: # python /usr/local/Zope-2.7.0/utilities/ZODBTools/fstest.py /home/dballing/Data.fs /home/dballing/Data.fs has inconsistent transaction length for undone transaction at 475866827 .. if I try fsrefs, I get even less pleasant output: # python /usr/local/Zope-2.7.0/utilities/ZODBTools/fsrefs.py /home/dballing/Data.fs Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/Zope-2.7.0/utilities/ZODBTools/fsrefs.py", line 25, in ? from ZODB.FileStorage import FileStorage ImportError: No module named ZODB.FileStorage Ugh... any pointers on what I should do next?
