[Zope] Zope Database Crash?

[Gary Spivey]

I am using plone ...
Zope2.7b3
python 2.3.2
RedHat9
CMF-1.4.2
archetypes1.2.3
CMFBoard-1.4.2
CMFPlone2.0-RC2
PortalTransforms-1.0.2
Zwiki-0-27-0cvs

Yesterday after a reboot, apache is fine, but Zope doesn't work anymore. I
get a 503 message. Can't get to the management interface - nothing. So I
made a brand new zope instance just to check out everything else and it
works fine.
Ok - so I think maybe it is the database? And I run the fsrestore on it and
it says it deletes zero records. The database stayed the same, but the index
changes. However, this does nothing to solve my problem. The system still
says 503. I tried copying my database over to the new zope instance. That
didn't work either.

 Does anybody have any clear direction on a way ahead? Right now I have an
entire website (most relatively new work that hasn't been backed up yet)
that is completely useless as it quit working one day. Can I at least
retrieve some things from the database? Is the problem the database? Any
other ideas?

If you can point me to any manuals that I can RTFM that would be helpful as
well as I found out about fsrestore via that source of all information -
google.

Thanks for any help.
