[Zope] Zope and RedHat 9

[Joachim Schmitz]

On the german zope users group list (dzug.org) we recently had this post:=



Just for info, bevor noch mehr damit ihre Zeit verschwenden:

Die neuen Linux Distributionen (RedHat 9.0, SuSe 8.2, Mandrake 9.1, ...)
kommen unter anderem mit einer =FCberarbeiteten glibc, was zur Folge
haben kann, dass Pythons/Zopes threading nicht mehr funktioniert
(Symptom: Zope h=E4ngt sich sporadisch einfach auf aber hinterl=E4=DFt
keine Fehlermeldungen).

Work around (not really a fix):
In der Shell, von der aus Zope gestartet werden soll,

export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=3D2.2.5

eingeben.

translation:

the new Linux distros (RedHat 9.0, SuSe 8.2, Mandrake 9.1, ...) ship=20
with a new glibc, which can cause Pythons threading to fail.

Work around (not really a fix):
In the shell, which starts Zope

export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=3D2.2.5

hope that helps.
