Hi folks,

This is my first post to this list and I'm desperate for help. I'm running 
Zope 2.6.1 with Python 2.1.3. My Zope instance died today and won't come 
back. When I try to start it, I get:

2005-08-27T20:58:15 PANIC(300) z2 Startup exception
Traceback (innermost last):
   File /home/lrc/z2.py, line 497, in ?
   File <string>, line 1, in ?
   File /home/lrc/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 37, in ?
   File /home/lrc/lib/python/ZODB/FileStorage.py, line 213, in __init__
   File /home/lrc/lib/python/ZODB/lock_file.py, line 33, in lock_file
StorageSystemError: Could not lock the database file.  There must be
another process that has opened the file.

The kid, 1657, died on me.

At first I deleted Data.fs.lock and cannot find any process that would 
suggest zope is running. I've also played with renaming various .pid files 
in hopes of an answer. I'm stumped and in very hot water right now. Any 
help or guidance would be very appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan
