Bear with me, I'm a sysadmin, not a developer.
I'm maintaining a Zope 2.5.1 server with Python 2.1.3 on Solaris 7. We recently upgraded from Zope 2.3.1. I'm seeing a problem where, occasionally, a bot will come along to index our site and suddenly Zope stops responding to all requests. It looks like what is happening is that the bot finds a loop in the content where each time you click on a link, you are returned to the same page, but the URL has one more level of depth. For example, I see requests in the log file for things like this:
siteroot/info/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalo g/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalog/catalog Apparently, the page presented for "siteroot/info" contains a reference to "catalog" and the one for "siteroot/info/catalog" does the same (maybe, because it is inherited from "info").
Prevent one of these two references... Dieter
