The file is existing. I tried to delete all the .index, .lock, .tmp files in the var-folder and zope re-creates them on calling the /manage site, so there shouldn't be a problem with writing-permissions

With the old 2.7.4 version it does work. I also tried to upgrade it in steps, with zope-2.8.6 it still works and none of those two error messages appear. With zope-2.9.8 at least one of these errors appeared. Has there anything changed in the interface within those versions?

The changelog of 2.9.0 says: "Zope now utilizes ZODB 3.6. It had previously used ZODB 3.4. As a result, the DBTab package was removed, as ZODB 3.6 has multidatabase support that makes DBTab unnecessary."
Could this cause those errors?
