I don't seem able to undo anything anymore. One of my 'sub-managers' was renaming something and said he came across an error. I tried clicking the 'Undo' button and got 'System Unavailable' with this traceback;

<!-- Error type: error Error value: unpack str size does not match format --> <P> <hr width="50%">

I've also found that I went over quota on the account that this Zope installation is running on...this is bad news, right?

Answering my own mail, it's a slow day in ZopeLand.

Basically, the Data.fs file was stuffed. I couldn't use Undo or add any other objects. I had to replace it with the Data.fs file I had (fortuitously!!) saved from the night before.

Warning to others: check your quota on accounts that you run Zope under. It seems there's no way to recover from this situation, other than to use a backup (if you've got one).
