[Zope] pcgi problems

[Jason Abate]

I've had a Zope-based site up and running with no problems for about
nine months, and now am having some strange behavior with pcgi.  I am
using Apache-SSL with mod_rewrite to server secure Zope pages via pcgi.
Occasionally (several times per day) I get error messages from pcgi,
including:

- 102 - failure during connect
- 116 - unable to connect, fd = 8

Whenever these pop up, the secure connection to the site is useless, but
I can still connect directly to the ZServer on port 8080 with no
problems.  I've looked through the pcgi source a little bit, but don't
see what would cause this.  Any ideas?

As a related question, does anyone have experiences good or bad with
using theM2Crypto package to setup a secure ZServer?  If that works
well, I'd just assume cut out the Apache layer and use ZServer directly.

Thanks,

-jason
