I never be able to run zope directly from CD-rom, because in iso9960 the max directory depth is restricted to 6.
Oh, didn't know that :-S Really? You sure? Seems odd...
So, the solution:
1. I installed zope (2.7.0) to my computer, choosing to split server and instance 2. I put server (which was under C:\Program Files) and instance into one directory 3. I corrected the paths (SOFTWARE_HOME, etc) in instance\bin\runzopes.bat and instance\etc\zope.conf. I also put '@set PYTHONCASEOK=0' to runzope.bat (just to make sure :)) 4. I zipped zope instance (and server) with winzip,
5. Unzipping this to the same directory on another compöuter, it works!
Indeed.
So the cd-rom should contain this zip file and a script to unzip it (or a self-extractor, wow :) )
I'm suprised the zip step is necessary. PluginIndexes is Andreas' fault, beat him with a stick for having such a deeply nested directory structure ;-)
I can make a howto on this if you are interested.
That would be cool :-) cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
