| Logged In: YES user_id=59803 You might want to re-open this one, Barry. The problem seems to be with any large number of bsddb inserts, which can also be triggered by shelve. See: http://www.deadlybloodyserious.com/Python/2002/05/06.html http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10242 |

| Logged In: YES user_id=12800 I'd highly suggest that any serious work with BerkeleyDB be done with pybsddb and a more modern version of Berkeley. The bsddb module that comes with Python 2.2 has serious problems, including not being able to link on some *nix distros. Also BDB 1.85 is way way old and has many known problems. I ran the deadlybloddyserious example using BDB 3.11 and pybsddb 3.0 and it passed with flying colors. See www.sleepycat.com for the latest BDB's and pybsddb.sf.net for the latest Python wrappers. |

| Logged In: YES user_id=29957 Barry, if it's known to be stuffed, why is it still there? Is there an open bug report for how it's busted? A bunch of stuff that depends on getting "a db storage" is going to use bsddb... |

| Logged In: YES user_id=276840 Apparently, this problem only occurs when the hash table form of bsddb is used. The b-bree version (btopen) does not have this problem. |

| Logged In: YES user_id=12800 I'll re-open this one as a reminder to myself to deal with this somehow. All I know is that distutils build of bsddbmodule fails for all the Linux flavors I've tested it on. I think the autodetection of the library to link against is busted in Py2.2 & 2.3. I don't have time to think more about this now, but I will make sure I do /something/ about it for Py2.3. |

| Logged In: YES user_id=12800 I think the fact that pybsddb is now the default bsddb module makes this bug report out of date. Closing. |
