Hmm... The first time I copied the 3gig Data.fs over and tried to start
Zope a few times. After fiddling with the permissions of the var directory
it finally started, but the Data.fs was only 2MB!

So I copied it again. And once again, the 3gig Data.fs is blown away!
What am I doing wrong??? What are the permissions of the "var" folder
supposed to be? I'm starting Zope with:

python Zope/z2.py -w 8080 -F 8081 -W 8082 -u httpd

I don't understand what you're saying here. Do you mean it works
without complaining for you? In the past I have deleted all the
Products that were in the Products Control Panel to fix a similar bug.
Is that the case here as well?

HTMLDocument is a 3rd party product. Is there a document that says what
has changed enough since 2.5.1 that would break products? and how to fix them?

This is frustrating...
