It means that some object in the Connection was in a modified state when an attempt to close the Connection was made. The current transaction must be committed or aborted first -- ZODB can't guess whether the pending changes should be committed or thrown away, so it won't let the app close the Connection until the app decides that for itself. Which version of Zope? Note that ZODBMountPoint isn't part of ZODB -- it's part of Zope, and gets rewritten a lot ;-) That's why the Zope version is important. If you want to make progress, look in SVN history for who rewrote it most recently for the version of Zope you're using. _______________________________________________ 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
