In an attempt to upgrade the Zope from 2.3.1b1 to 2.3.2 we encountered a
problem.

All the data in out Data.fs file was lost so it had to be restored from a
backup.

Any ideas as to what the problem may have been???

Procedure

Stopped the Zope instance

Changed the Zope instance home and port

Restarted
 Came back to prompt quickly
 Logs were empty when checked

Enabled Debug
 Restarted
 Logs show Data.fs is locked
 Made sure Zope was stopped
 Killed the process that had the file locked (kill -9)

 Restart

 Realised file was 1.6meg not 700

Ideas guys??
