Hello, I created a Zope sandbox based on the script of Sidnei http://cvs.zope.org/NZO_SiteLayout/buildout_zope_sandbox?cvsroot=Zope.org I've tested with Python 2.3b1 and Zope 2.7 (using CVS-head). I also created a Makefile which can be easily used for making, cleaning-up and starting/stopping Zope. The scripts are available at http://gewis.nl/~pieterb/zope/zopesandbox (work-in-progress). It would be great to have a (modular) create_sandbox script which would work on all (Unix) platforms and where you can easiliy select which version of the various products you want to use. When starting/stopping Zope I get the following error: bin/zopectl stop /home/pieterb/ZopeSandBox/opt/Zope-head/lib/python/ ZServer/medusa/test/max_sockets.py:53: DeprecationWarning: integer argument expected, got float for i in range(1 + len(sl) * 0.05): which can be easility fixed: for i in range(int((1 + len(sl) * 0.05))): After fixing that I get the following error when I start Zope: /home/pieterb/ZopeSandBox/opt/Zope-head/lib/python/App/Product.py:37: DeprecationWarning: the rotor module uses an insecure algorithm and is deprecated import os, re, zlib, marshal, rotor, cPickle This seems harder to fix. I also tried adding a Plone site, but that gives an "Action cancelled" error in the browser (and I don't see any logging of the problem). I'll also tried with Python 2.2.2, but that also fails... Some questions: - Will Python 2.3 be supported for Zope 2.7/Zope 3? - Should I use the HEAD or the 2.7-dev-branche for Zope 2.7? (please document this in the 2.7 Wiki). - Would others try the scrips on their platform (and possibly improve it) PieterB
