Subject: [Problem report] "pack" discards reachable object (was: [Zope] Pack
problem with zeo)
Jonathan wrote at 2006-8-21 11:41 -0400:
I have encountered a problem caused by packing Data.fs (pack done via
ZMI -
Control Panel - Database Management - main - Pack). After Data.fs is
packed, the ZODBmount point for the zeo server is missing.
I have the following folder set-up:
Root
|----Coz
|---ZeoServer1
After the pack operation, folder 'ZeoServer1' is missing.
That would be a severe bug in "FileStorage" -- and it is almost
unbelievable...
A mount point is nothing special for a "FileStorage". It is
treated like any other object.
What you tell us is that a reachable object can be discarded
by packing. As a mount point is nothing special, it could
happen with any object.
But it is now years back that we got the last packing problem report.
I can reproduce the behaviour very easily... after I pack and the
'ZeoServer1' folder disappears i do the following:
- stop zope
- delete Data.fs
- rename Data.fs.old to Data.fs
- start zope
And the ZeoServer1 folder is back. I then pack zope and the ZeoServer1
folder disappears again. I can do this again and again and again.
