I don't know. All I know is that from the discussion on this list last 
week, I discovered *several* people have had a problem with the ZServer 
quitting for no apparent reason since the early days of Zope. Now, that 
sounds like a bug to me.

So I've come up with a work-around.

You seem like you know programming and Zope better than I. Would you mind 
helping me? Here's my question:

For some reason, ZServer crashes every few hours and has to be re-started. 
So I wrote this script:
 >>>
#!/bin/sh
while :
# if there's a page there, copy it to a test file
do `wget -q -t 3 -T 30 http://thewebsons.com:8080/index_html -O test`
# if there's something in the test file, go take a nap
if grep '^<' test
then
sleep 60
# whoops! Why the heck does RH6.2 complain there's no ./start file?? 
Sometimes it complains, sometimes not. Hmmm...
else if ./start
then
./start &
sleep 60
else
sleep 10
fi
fi
done
<<<
and just let the fool thing run (in the Zope installation). But now I get 
error messages stating ./start doesn't exist! That's why the *else if* 
stuff, but it _still isn't good enough! Come back hours later and Zope's 
dead as a doornail. Furthermore, my script's not running, either. I don't 
get it! What am I not seeing?
TIA,
BenO
P.S. If there were a way to keep my ZServer from crashing *without* this 
script, sure would like to know what it is...
