RESOLVED: UI throws ZODB.POSException.POSKeyError while findposkeyerror comes u ...

Hi

I am running the Zenoss Core VM 4.2.3 VM (additional HD and memory i think )

What happened before

One of my reports came up with "broken" graphs.
googled and found a hint to check
/tmp/renderserver directory for permissions or delete it and have zenoss recreate it on next start.

-stopped zenoss ( /etc/init.d/zenoss stop)
-deleted /tmp/renderserver
- well as there was lots of other old stuff i deleted that too

started zenoss ( /etc/init.d/zenoss start ) without errors

---> Situation as described above.

googled error.
found reference to the Zenoss.toolbox on zenoss.com

Installed zenoss toolbox.
zennoss.toolbox utility findposkeyerror found and (2nd run) fixed a couple of errors.
all other utilities found no errors.

--> Situation still as described above.

turned to the forum for advice.

TIA
