RE: Left Menu (Frame) on ZMI not displaying (ARGH!!!!)
Paul, I have never experienced the left pane not loading, but I have often experienced it taking a very long time to load. It seems to be Zope's way of telling me that it is time to pack the database. Packing the database always fixes it. Then it gets slower and slower over time as edits swell the database. If you haven't packed your database recently, you might try it. Carl
Well, I moved Data.fs from the working server to the new server (after shutting Zope down on both of course) and the problem STILL persists!!!! This is really frustrating .. I mean, it worked fine for 3 days then suddenly doesn't work .. no errors in logs, what the ????
ANynody have any last suggestions before I resort to re-installing everything fresh from source???

Time should not (significantly) depend on a well packed storage file: On startup, "FileStorage" computes an index mapping object ids to file positions. Computing the index depends on the size of the storage file, but once it is there, each object can be essentially accessed in constant time (independent on the number of old versions). -- Dieter
