Re: [Webware-discuss] Webware death...

[Clark C . E. <cc...@cl...>]

Geoff, thank you for your help.

| What OS are you using?

Debian Potato (Linux 2.2.19)

| and which adapter are you using?  Does it make a 
| difference if you switch to the CGI adapter?

mod_webkit; the problem is independent of adapter.

| Does file uploading still cause Webware to abort even with the latest 
| release?  Is it reliably reproducible, for example with the FileUpload 
| example servlet?

This was fixed in the latest release, thanks!

| Does the WebKit process actually exit? 

Yes.  If I have WebKit running in a window
it returns me back to the command prompt.

| I seem to remember someone else having problems with Webware crashing due 
| to a bug in the PostgreSQL module.  They upgraded to a newer version of the 
| PostgreSQL Python module and the crashes went away.  You might want to look 
| in the mail list archives for more information about that.

Hmm.  Perhaps this may be the problem; if the connection
stops before the PostgreSQL stops returning data.  Hmm.
I'll look into this in more detail.

| On Unix, there's Monitor.py.  I haven't ever used it though.

I'll see if it helps!

| On Windows, do you get a full traceback? 

No traceback...

Thank you... this bug hurts bad since a few of 
my alpha users keep bringing the server down.

Best,
