[Zope-dev] .lock files on Windows
Hi, With Plone 4 and thus Zope 2.12.10, we've noticed a problem that I think only affects Windows. Can anyone confirm or shed some more light? Basically, if we run an instance (installed via plone.recipe.zope2instance as bin\instance) in the foreground (bin\instance fg) and then kill it with Ctrl+C, the var\instance.lock and var\instance.pid files are not cleaned up. These need to be manually deleted, otherwise Zope refuses to start up with the confusing message Please stop the instance before starting it.

I thought the problem was only the .pid file, not the .lock. Can you confirm? The .lock file should go away if the process dies in any way, but the .pid file seems to only be deleted on clean shutdown. -- Sidnei ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

I'm on 2.13.0a3 w/plone.recipe.zope2instanec-4.0.2. Under the scenario Martin described, exiting a fg with ctrl-c, the lock file is cleaned up for me. If I kill the service using Task Manager the lock file remains.

It seemed to be happening intermittently. But it happened on two different PCs running Windows XP. Instances were started with bin\instance fg and killed with Ctrl+C.
