Hello, We are using Zope for some of the functionality on a high traffic (150K hits a day) site we maintain. It's turning out to be very unstable (on our platform at least). I'd like some advice on how to get it more stable (besides switching hardware/platforms, which is on the agenda down the road). What happens is that somehow a bunch of additional pcgi_publisher.py processes get started until eventually the zope app is unreachable ("Temporarily Unavailable" errors). I've seen up to around 10 of these additional python processes running at the same time. To get things going again, I have to login and kill them all and restart Zope (by reloading it - I have to do this about once every day or two). In the pcgi.log file, I find a ton of these messages: Thu Apr 29 11:02:57 1999 pcgi-wrapper: pcgiVerifyProc failed (103) unable to verify if process is running I'm guessing that mabey the zope process isn't returing fast enough for the pcgi process, which then thinks it needs to start up zope. Or something like this. My initial idea is to modify pcgi's timeout, to see if making it a little longer would help. Please feel free with any advice/tips/etc. Thanks, PS. some specs: Zope-1.10.2 Apache-1.3.3 BSDI 3.1 (strange setup with multiple virtual machines on one physical machine - they claim it's no different than a full system) python-1.5.1 (all modules are statically compiled in - including zope modules) --- John Eikenberry [jae@kavi.com - http://taos.kavi.com/~jae/] ______________________________________________________________ "A society that will trade a little liberty for a little order will deserve neither and lose both." --B.
