I have exactly the same problems on RH6.1 and Zope 2.1.2 compiled from
source (I also did a cvs checkout yesterday, but it had the same
problems).

I first thought it was me doing something wrong, since it was my first
attempt to write a product in python, and that it was "broken" almost
all the time.



I also get a lot of

2000-01-07T18:09:02 ERROR(200) ZODB Couldn't load state for
'\000\000\000\000\000\000\002\320'

is that related, or is that because of the broken product?

It seems to disappear if I kill zope and all python processes and
restart.



I ended up starting zope with ./start and killing it with ctrl+c
yesterday. I had enough problems trying to understand zclasses etc than
to bother about if things got reloaded all the time...
