Duh! That was all my fault. The pack was failing because of incorrect permissions on the Data.fs file. -Mark -----Original Message----- From: Shaw, Mark [mailto:Mark.Shaw@osip.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 20, 2000 4:51 PM To: zope@zope.org Subject: [Zope] Error packing database 2.1.7 -> 2.1.6 I have a site that is currently running 2.1.7. If I install a new instance of 2.1.6, reload all the products, and copy all the Data* file from the 2.1.7 instance to the 2.1.6 instance, everything appears to work fine. However, if I try to pack the database, the following error is generated. The database packs without any problem when using the 2.1.7 instance. This copy of Zope is being run on RedHat Linux6.1. Thanks in advance for any help provided.
