gotcha for zope on solaris2.7 - make sure you use pthreads.
If you're running a Zope on Solaris2.7 and you're seeing strange behaviour, make sure that your python executable's been built and linked with pthreads, not solaris threads. I've just had a horrible time figuring out why I was seeing very strange behaviour on Solaris until I noticed this. ldd `which python` should show /usr/lib/libpthread.so, NOT /usr/lib/libthread.so. Anthony, bitter and twisted at Sun.

Can you tell us what kind of behaviour Anthony? I'm using 2.6 on our main box (and 2.7 on another dev. box). cheers, 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
