I've been hosting a plone 4.3.3 site for a masters degree on a debian server for the last few years without a hitch. I had to shutdown my server for some electrical maintenance last friday and now my plone site will not restart. It fails with the following traceback:
instance: Traceback (most recent call last):

The only thing I can think of, is that my file system might have been corrupted following the power outage and reboot. Is there some simple way to find out which file or directory is missing?
Can you check the permissions of the directory /home/Plone-4.3.3_Oacos/Oacos/ and subdirs, expecialli the zeocluster/var/filestorage/ and blobstorage dirs?
well such things could happen but should not happen.
First check if your FileStorage and Blob Storrage are (/home/Plone-4.3.3_Oacos/Oacos/var/filestorage/Data.fs and /home/Plone-4.3.3_Oacos/Oacos/var/blobstorage/) are avaliable and have right access rights for the user that executes Zope/Plone.
If those are avaliable, try to start the instance with the right user in foreground mode: ./bin/instance fg
Your traceback seems to have no zeo-setup but a single instance setup. If you have a zeo-Setup please start the zeoserver first.
if all of this fails, please rerun buildout to ensure that all libraries are avaliable.
It seems the server shutdown and reboot did not go as smoothly as I originally thought and that the contents of my instance bin directory got corrupted. Launching buildout repopulated the bin directory and the instance now lauches as it should.
