Everything was going so well today, too.... Zope was installed as part of the Plone 2 installer on Win2K. Has been running fine for several months. I was adding some issues to my collector, and things started hanging up on my system. After reboot, the Zope service did not start, trying to start it manually through the service manager gives "could not start the zope instance at c:\program files\Plone2\Data service on Local Computer. The service did not return an error. There could be an internal windows error or an internal service error." the last three messages in the error log are: total failure getting the folderlisting action for the folder http://compaq.antiques:8080/Knowledgebase/tech/collector.2005-01-07.33295155... trying to restart the server via the service manager does not create a new event log. I can start Zope manually via runzope.bat, and it will work, though it gives me this error: C:\Program Files\Plone 2\Zope\lib\python\Zope\Startup \run.py" -C "C:\Program Fil es\Plone 2\Data\etc\zope.conf" Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files\Plone 2\Zope\lib\python\Products\CMFBoard\Forum.py", li ne 34, in ? from ForumMailReceiver import MailReceiver File "C:\Program Files\Plone 2\Zope\lib\python\Products\CMFBoard\ForumMailRece iver.py", line 22, in ? from Products.PortalTransport.interfaces.mailreceiver import IMailReceiver ImportError: No module named PortalTransport.interfaces.mailreceiver Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files\Plone 2\Zope\lib\python\Products\CMFBoard\Forum.py", li ne 41, in ? from Subscribeable import Subscribeable File "C:\Program Files\Plone 2\Zope\lib\python\Products\CMFBoard\Subscribeable .py", line 18, in ? from Products.PortalTransport.SubscribeableMember import SubscribeableMember ImportError: No module named PortalTransport.SubscribeableMember Help! I was using that Zope instance as a spare brain, and my last backup is....[expletive deleted]... too old to be useful.
