I'm pretty sure adding __del__ will not help.   It will only be
called when the FileStorage instance is freed.  If that happens the
file object that it refers to should also be closed.

Can you provide a traceback?  Also, are you using FileStorage
directly or are you using a storage server?

That's probably the best solution.
