The strange thing is, restarting the MS SQL server might be (we're not certain) a solution to get Zope responding again. My theory was that the threads get too attached to a network service that doesn't time out or raise an error. Sadly I can't reproduce it but the next time it happens I'll look at both DeadlockDebugger and the Control_Panel Debug info if there are any clues there. -- Peter Bengtsson, work www.fry-it.com home www.peterbe.com hobby www.issuetrackerproduct.com _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - [email protected] 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 )
