Yes, that's true. I was worried that this would result in a '.' being printed to the screen 10 times a second in some failure cases: during our migration to zdctl, if we had some databases started otherwise then when starting them with zdctl it resulted in '.' being printed to the screen once per second indefinitely. This would be far more painful if the screen was being literally flooded with them... But, I see that the latest zdaemon only tries for 10 seconds and then gives up anyway, which would avoid this problem. So you could either change the sleep to 0.1s and increase the "n > 10" check to "n > 100", or you might consider something like the attached patch (applies against zdaemon-2.0a6) Thanks! -- Daniel Drake Brontes Technologies, A 3M Company _______________________________________________ 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
