Python 2.2 doesn't come with a Makefile.pre.in, which Zope depends on to build the C extensions. I have heard that copying the one from a 2.1 installation will work. I have not yet tried it. I think this is getting to be a FAQ :-)

Tony, Use Python 2.1.2 instead of 2.2 and this problem will go away. Zope isn't distributed in such a way that it's 2.2-compatible at the moment.

Hi, I'm trying to get Zope working under cygwin. I have read thread related to this last October/November, but without luck cygwin version - 1.3.9-1 (cygwin engine) Have installed python separately (2.2-1) and built with threads Done thing with FCNTL.h then

cd Zope-2.5.0-src python wo_pcgi.py and get following output below The contents of usr/local/lib/python2.2 ceratinly dont contain any Makefile info. It appears to be trying to rebuild the python within Zope? There is a makefile.pre.in within Zope..src/lib/python, but poiting to it just gives error of form no target boot in MAkefile

Any help much appreciated.
