[Zope] Stopping zope??

[Meilicke, Scott]

I often do:

ps ax | grep python

to see if zope is really running or not.

That's the easiest way to shutdown Zope.

Ignore the error message. It's an artefact because Python
raises a "SystemExit" exeption when "sys.exit" (Python's shutdown function)
is called.
No one gave this exception special treatment. Therefore, you
see it reported.

This means either, that Zope is already stopped (e.g. because your
ZMI action has been successful) or that the PID found
in "var/Z2.pid" no longer describes the correct Zope process
(the feature is a bit brittle).

 What am I doing wrong?
Almost surely, you simply got confused by the (stupid) error
message...
