zodbverify 1.2.0

Script

The verification runs on a plain ZODB file. The Zope application is not started.

Run i.e.:

bin/zodbverify -f var/filestorage/Data.fs

Usage:

zodbverify [-h] -f ZODBFILE [-D] [-o OID]

Verifies that all records in the database can be loaded.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -f ZODBFILE, --zodbfile ZODBFILE
                        Path to file-storage
  -D, --debug           pause to debug broken pickles
  -o OID, --oid OID     oid to inspect

plone.recipe.zope2instance integration

The verification runs in the context of the initialized Zope application.

Usage:

./bin/instance zodbverify [-h] [-D] [-o OID]

Verifies that all records in the database can be loaded.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help         show this help message and exit
  -D, --debug        pause to debug broken pickles
  -o OID, --oid OID  oid to inspect

Inspecting a single oid

The output of zodbverify gives you a list of all problems and the oid that are affected.

To inspect a single oid in detail you can pass one of these to zodbverify:

./bin/instance zodbverify -o 0x2e929f

This will output the pickle and the error for that oid.

By also adding the debug-switch you will get two pdb’s while the script runs:

./bin/instance zodbverify -o 0x2e929f -D

2020-03-11 10:40:24,972 INFO    [Zope:45][MainThread] Ready to handle requests
The object is 'obj'
The Zope instance is 'app'
[4] > /Users/pbauer/workspace/dipf-intranet/src-mrd/zodbverify/src/zodbverify/verify_oid.py(52)verify_oid()
-> pickle, state = storage.load(oid)

In the first pdb you have the object for the oid as obj and the zope instance as app. Before the second pdb the pickle will be disassembled the same way as when using zodbverify to pause to debug broken pickles without passing a oid.

1.2.0 (2022-07-06)

New features:

• Improve debugging output: show all objects that reference a oid. See Philip’s blog post for more information. See also discussion in pull request 8. [pbauer] (#8)

1.1.0 (2020-04-22)

New features:

• Show the affected oids for each error. Inspect a single oid. The idea is to run zodbverify on the whole database and from the output copy one oid and run it again to further inspect that object. [pbauer] (#6)

Bug fixes:

• Minor packaging updates. (#1)

1.0.2 (2019-08-08)

Bug fixes:

• Open Data.fs in read only mode. (#2)

1.0.1 (2019-05-09)

Bug fixes:

• Fix project description. [jensens] (#1)

1.0 (2019-05-09)

New features:

• Initial effort. Base code taken from Products.CMFPlone (created by @davisagli). Enhanced and packaged for more general Zope use. [dwt,jensens] (#1)
