| Help - my plone site is spinning! |

Each time I restart zope on my production server, it
instantly consumes 99% of
my cpu cycles. A little research says this is called
"spinning".
I am struggling through the tutorial "Coping with a
Live Spinning Zope" at
http://plone.org/documentation/how-to/cop
ing-with-a-live-spinning-zope. But I
am not a Linux guru.
The suggestion in the tutorial for a bandaid fix (restarting
zope each time it
starts to spin) doesn't work for me because it starts
spinning on restart!
If anyone can provide some other thoughts or suggestions,
they would be
greatly appreciated! Should I upgrade to zope 2.10 or plone
2.5.2?
I am running zope 2.9 and plone 2.5.1 with just one plone
site. I get these
warnings when I start zope:

Likely it's some add-on product you have installed. I'd try
removing
those and adding them back one or two at a time. It could be
the
combination of add-ons as well.

How long does this happen for? It may also be called
"starting up". ;)
Take a look at DeadlockDebugger

This will only help you if the site runs at least for a
while. If it
spins forever at startup, that's a different thing..

(a) not quite a bandaid fix, this is the approach of
google's site
reliability team
(b) how long does it take to start up? i've seen a zope take
5min to
respond. something is wrong in that case, but auto-restart
is not the
answer. when i reduced start time from 5min then
auto-restart worked
again. otherwise, it's a loop.

zope 2.9.6 / plone 2.5.2 is my suggestion, but this probably
isn't
your problem unless you are already running a mismatch
version of
python / zope / plone. plone 2.5works on zope 2.8 and 2.9,
not quite
on 2.10.

Welcome to the machine. ;)
These are developer messages, i wish we could set up zope so
they only
display in debug mode or something.
> Would any of these warnings cause the spinning?
Probably not, but having a ton of add-ons load at startup
will make it
take longer for sites to load. Does your zope port ever try
to
respond at all, e.g. leave browser spinning?

I would approach the spinning analysis on C level:
Attach "gdb" to your spinning Zope process:
gdb <your Python> <process id of your
zope>
Zope will stop and get under "gdb" control.
You then use the gdb commands

Yes, please keep in mind that the cope with a spinning Zope
tutorial
was for this situation:
* I inherited a volunteer-created Zope site which is so
old the
author must have once been friends with Jim Fulton
* It spins incessantly and takes down the shared server it
is on, as
well as bringing the site down.
* It is far cheaper to replace this antiquated code with
something I
can understand more easily, e.g. Plone, and to come up with
a solution
to keep content available to the masses in the meantime.
Also, if your Plone were to spin like this, periodically,
not on
startup, this tool could be useful *while* you track down
the problem.
Bugs should not always be even attempted to be solved at
4am when you
have a site down, but auto-restart is no permanent
solution.
It was a matter of an estimated cost about four times
greater to fix
this old site versus moving its' content into Plone, which
is much
nicer than the old ZUBB-based system which probably used ZMI
/ CMF
interface for content management.

Justin,
I did not intent to offer any insult or denigrate your
article. I have a lot
of respect for the folks who work on plone, and especially
those who take the
time to write articles such as yours. Thank you for your
time and effort for
writing the article!
At first blush, I thought the article would be about fixing
the problem. I
completely understand the rational for your approach to
solving the problem,
and I don't disagree with it. Unfortunately, since my site
was spinning at
start up, I could not use your solution.
And now back to my broken site!
Cheers!
Mark

Auto-restart is a perfectly working solution and I would
consider it "best
practise" when you're working with Zope. If you have
your Zopes running
behind a loadbalancer you are able to remove a restarting
Zope from the
loadbalancer before initiating the restart without having
any further
side effects for site visitors.

Dieter,
I have looked through the man page for gdb and the
documentation. I cannot
find a reference to "evalFrame". Can you let me
know what the correct
command is, or what it is supposed to do?
Thanks!

"evalFrame" is not a GDB command.
In fact, I wrote "If you are in a frame
"evalFrame" (or similar), then you
can use "pfr" to see which Python code this frame
belongs to".
As I had today to analyse a SIGSEGV (you can use the same
technique for
post mortem analysis of a died Zope), I know by now that the
name
is more "PyEval_EvalFrame" (than
"evalFrame").
When you look down the traceback (obtained by the GDB
"bt" command),
some of the frames belong to function calls of the above
function.
In such frames, you can find out about the corresponding
Python code.
And I forgot to stress an important precondition: your
Python
must have debugging symbols included. This is the default
with
Python installations build from source. But, Python
installations
that come with your operating system are often stripped and
lack debugging information.
You probably will need to build your own Python from
source,
in case it lacks the debugging information.
