[Zope] Mystery error: "The resource you requested is temporarily unavailable"

[Chris McDonough]

One way to find out whether Zope is restarting is to start Zope with the 
event log enabled, e.g.:

./start STUPID_LOG_FILE=/some/log/file/name

You will see startup messages in the log.

I dont know whether your external method could cause it or not...
