Hi, I created a first draft cut of a A-A-P file for Zope/Python and Zope products. I think of using it for creating a zopetest "product" and a new FreeBSD zopetest port (a Makefile that uses 'aap' and can be used to create several zopeinstances with several sets of products. I also would like to write some scripts which can be used to do functional/performance tests (on the various Zope/Python versions on various platforms). I think that would really be usefull for the Zope continuous integration process. The current script (invoke with 'aap') downloads Python 2.2.3 and PyXML, builds and tests Python, gets Zope from CVS and configures Zope. Have a look at: http://gewis.nl/~pieterb/zope/zopetest/main.aap-v0.01.txt and rename it to main.aap. Some Zopeissues I ran into: --------------------------------------------------- As a followup to: http://collector.zope.org/Zope/952 When you specify a python using --with-python you don't get warned about whether you use a non-optimal python or not. Maybe it's also good to mention the user that he/she IS using the optimal python version, when he/she does so. -------------------------------------------------- Please rename the makefile to Makefile --------------------------------------------------- zopectl has a hardcoded PYTHON variable set to: PYTHON="/usr/local/bin/python" shouldn't it use the --with-python version? ------------------------------------------------------- ZConfig requires PyXML. Default Python doesn't provide it. Both zopectl using Python 2.2.2 and Python 2.2.3 give the following traceback: ./zopectl start Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/Zope/Startup/zopectl.py", line 148, in ? main() File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/Zope/Startup/zopectl.py", line 131, in main options.realize(args) File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/Zope/Startup/zopectl.py", line 80, in realize ZDOptions.realize(self, *args, **kw) File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/zdaemon/zdoptions.py", line 257, in realize self.load_schema() File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/zdaemon/zdoptions.py", line 298, in load_schema self.schema = ZConfig.loadSchema(self.schemafile) File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/ZConfig/loader.py", line 36, in loadSchema return SchemaLoader().loadURL(url) File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/ZConfig/loader.py", line 70, in loadURL return self.loadResource(r) File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/ZConfig/loader.py", line 134, in loadResource self.registry, self) File "/tmp/zope/lib/python/ZConfig/schema.py", line 42, in parseResource xml.sax.parse(resource.file, parser) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.2/xml/sax/__init__.py", line 30, in parse parser = make_parser() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.2/xml/sax/__init__.py", line 93, in make_parser raise SAXReaderNotAvailable("No parsers found", None) xml.sax._exceptions.SAXReaderNotAvailable: No parsers found Shouldn't ./configure already check this? ------------------------------------------------------------------ The doc/INSTALL.txt states: The Python you run Zope with *must* have threads compiled in, which is the case for a vanilla build. Warning: Zope will not run with a Python version that uses libpth. You *must* use libpthread. Can this be checked when running ./configure?
