[ZODB-Dev] another strange zeo error and zeo with ZLogger

[Joseph Wayne Norton]

Hello.

I have 2 items ...

1) zeo error - I'm using zeo-1.0b4-p1 with python2.1.1 on the solaris
platform.  Just today I happened to run across an error while
connecting a zeo client.  This is the first time that I have seen such
an error.  Is this related to the recent dicussion about the weird zeo
errors?

2001-10-04T06:25:55 ERROR(200) ZEO Server uncaptured python exception,
closing c
hannel <StorageServer listening :7111 at 3b18a4>

2) zeo enhanchement? - I would like to be able to use the
MailingLogger product (developed by nip ltd.) with zeo.  I looked into
the zeo code and realized that it does not use the ZLogger mechanism
(which MailingLogger requires) used by Zope.  I have patched another
copy of zeo start.py for **testing** purposes only and it seems to
work as expected.

 - is there any reason why I shouldn't import the ZLogger (and
 further the MailingLogger) module for such purposes?

 - does anyone else have experience with doing this?

 - in light of the above error, the mailinglogger product should be
 rock solid otherwise the mailing of such errors would defeat the
 purpose.


thanks and regards,

- joe
