I have a weird one here. I've been using Zope 2.0.0 final, binary release, Solaris 5.6 since it came out. It's been fine.
Now it's hung. 'top' shows (my username only) load averages: 0.03, 0.07, 0.11 13:45:59 297 processes: 296 sleeping, 1 on cpu CPU states: 97.1% idle, 0.0% user, 0.8% kernel, 2.0% iowait, 0.0% swap Memory: 512M real, 8712K free, 739M swap in use, 813M swap free

ie Python isn't taking up large amounts of CPU. I've tried connecting to the server using Lynx etc. and no joy. The FTP server on port 8021 is also not responding.
I haven't *as yet* killed the processes and started new ones, as I'd *really* like to know what it is I've done.
The only thing I've done is to use the binary release of python to do some MySQL work. I haven't installed Andy Dustmans' MySQLdb-0.1.0 yet. I used the same python installation that the Zope server is using. Is it possible I've done something to the 'interpreter lock' or somesuch...
Are both pythons hung? Were you interfering with a db that the Zope has open or somesuch? Have you tried the monitor_client.py inside ZServer/medusa? I run lots of things beside my win32 Zope and haven't locked up Zope2+CVS as yet. Running other python processes shouldn't do anything nasty. I assume that the binary python is 1.5.2 my RH6.0 came with 1.5.1, but I replaced it.
If the outcome is that I should leave the Zope python binary well alone whilst Zope is running - then that is completely icebox with me.
I hate to say this, but .... help!. tone. ------ Dr Tony McDonald, FMCC, Networked Learning Environments Project http://nle.ncl.ac.uk/ The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 222 5888 Fingerprint: 3450 876D FA41 B926 D3DD F8C3 F2D0 C3B9 8B38 18A2
