I see several people have had this problem, but no-one has posted a solution. zope 2.9.5 + zeo pythonm2.4.3 Red Hat RHEL 4 Plone 2.5.1 Our zeo clients hang intermittently. We have no way of reproducing the problem, but it occurs daily. The client hangs and a restart seems to fix the problem. I don't know if this even relevant but I also have had Zope go into lala land and struggled for a while trying to figure out what was going on. Like your situation it happened intermittently and a reboot recovered (and sometimes seemed to recover on its own). And like you I tried various methods to spot the problem including installing DeadlockDebugger. This was in various versions of Zope running on Win2003. In the end I found it was a page/browser at the root of the problem. It turns it is very easy to mount an inadvertent DOS attack on Zope that kills it. In my case I had a javascript in a periodic timer event handler (with a fairly short period) that did a page reload and under certain circumstances didn't clear the timer causing a timer event driven endless loop. ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

I remember some discussions about firewalls between Zope and ZEO which could cause problems...

Actually, I had the same issues using 2.8.5, but I've upgraded since then. Here's the situation: I have one zeo client connected to a zeo server on the same box. Apache sits in front, using RewriteRules to request data from zope. After some time (could be 2 minutes or an hour), the zeo client stops responding. Apparently this is called a deadlock or a spinning zope. I know this behaviour from a Python bug triggered by Linux threading peculiarity: In the case of this bug, the main thread is killed by a deadly signal but all other threads remain alife. Therefore, neither the zdaemon nor the clients recognized Zope's death (the zdaemon may recognize it but it cannot restart Zope as the sockets are still in use). A recognizing feature of this bug is that the remaining threads need to be killed with kill -9. This bug is fixed in newest Python versions of the Python 2.3 and Python 2.4 series. -- Dieter ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
