Just zodbbrowser with no prefix: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zodbbrowser https://launchpad.net/zodbbrowser It's a web-app: it can connect to your ZEO server so you can inspect the DB while it's being used. I'd suggest dumping the last few transactions with one of the ZODB scripts (fsdump.py perhaps) and seeing what objects get modified. If you know an OID of an object, you can look at it with ZODBBrowser by entering it in the URL, e.g. @@zodbbrowser?oid=0x1234. Seeing the object might give some clue where it comes from. Or, if you see a long history list for an object, you'll see what URLs were accessed during the requests that made modifications here. Sadly, currently ZODBBrowser doesn't have the ability to look for backreferences (planned in my mental TODO list---but it'll be a very expensive operation, especially on a large DB, since ZODB itself doesn't keep track), and it doesn't let you view transactions (also on my mental TODO list, also a bit expensive). > the z3c.zoodbbrowser can open a ZODB with a pythin GUI. > There you can iterate over each objects in the ZODB. > You will probably see more then you see in the UI, > especialy if some objects get created which you > don't expect.
