Dear all, I have one more upgrade problem (the last one I found so far), and this one puzzles me most. I'm using ZEO 3.6 / Zope 2.9.2, with Py 2.4.2, under Windows 2000 and XP.
I can open ClientStorage for the Zope (data.fs) storage just fine. However, when I open one of my own storages over ZEO, I can open a connection, but when I get its root(), it hangs (forever) after logging: 2006-04-19T11:27:34 INFO ZEO.ClientStorage (3172) Verifying cache I determined that it hangs in ZEO.ClientStorage, line 597: log2("Verifying cache") # setup tempfile to hold zeoVerify results --> self._tfile = tempfile.TemporaryFile(suffix=".inv") Digging in TemporaryFile, I found that it hangs in abspath, imported from Python module ntpath, on the import statement on line 488: # Return an absolute path. def abspath(path): """Return the absolute version of a path""" try: --> from nt import _getfullpathname If I replace this by: # Return an absolute path. def abspath(path): """Return the absolute version of a path""" try: if sys.modules.has_key('nt'): _getfullpathname = sys.modules['nt']._getfullpathname else: from nt import _getfullpathname ...everything works just fine. I've noticed that abspath() was introduced in tempfile._mkstemp_inner() in Python 2.4 (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=810914&group_i d=5470&atid=305470). When I apply that patch to Py 2.3 and run it with Zope 2.7.3 / ZEO 3.2, it hangs there as well! So it seems to be a problem with Py import - but I cannot reproduce it outside of the ZEO environment. I've already tried python -v, but there are no imports at that point (-v presumably only logs completed imports). My code uses no threads, apart from those created by ZEO itself. I would appreciate any hints on where to investigate further. Thank you, and best regards, Martin Gfeller _______________________________________________ For more information about ZODB, see the ZODB Wiki: http://www.zope.org/Wikis/ZODB/ ZODB-Dev mailing list - ZODB-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zodb-dev
