Well, if you want somebody able to help you, you should post the error
you got + a traceback.

Perhaps your Data.fs is corrupted or something like that. If I'm not
wrong, there was a bug when packing the ZopeDB on that zope version.
Somewhere on the zope hirarchy there is a script to repair this (look
the archives). Anyway,  if I were you, I would try to solve the problem
before migrating and off course do a backup before trying something.

You don't have to upgrade, but the new versions have some important bug
fixes. I'm also using the same zope as you and I really want to migrate
it. But first I have to migrate some ZClasses stuff :-(
