[Zope] Zope stops responding on hpux

[Samuel Bieri]

Dear list-members

I am desperately trying to get our zope application run on hpux, and any 
help is greatly appreciated. I have the following problem:

When I click on a tal-object ("Page Template") to edit it, then zope 
stops responding. No error is logged, nothing. I even cannot stop zope 
anymore with "zopectl stop" or control-c if started with runzope. It 
seems that zope silently crashes... However, I can create a tal-object, 
it only happens when I try to edit.

The last entries in tracert.log are:

My configuration are:
Python 2.3.3 compiled from source downloaded from the HP site: 
http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Languages/python-2.3.3/
This is the only python I manage to compile with-threads enabled.

Zope 2.7.6-final compiled from source

hpux version:
$ uname -a
HP-UX zuse B.11.11 U 9000/800 647349392 unlimited-user license

Zope Version
	
(Zope 2.7.6-final, python 2.3.3, hp-ux11)
Python Version
	
2.3.3 (#40, May 3 2005, 09:18:26) [GCC 3.4.3]
System Platform

I have also compiled and run zope versions 2.7.0/3/5, with no luck and 
always the same problem.

Has anyone seen a similar problem with zope?
Is anyone running zope successfully on hpux? Information on zope on hpux 
is very scarce, so I fear that I am very lonely in the field...
Any hint is greatly appreciated where I can look at or how I could debug 
zope.

Thank you very much
