hello all,
About the Zope 2.7 problem: I have a version of LatexWiki which uses Ape (http://cvs.zope.org/Products/Ape/, you can download a tarball at the bottom of the page) instead of LocalFs. Ape is still experimental software, but LocalFs hasn't been updated in ages and need kludges to work in new zopes. That smells bad.
So...uh...how did you do that? I installed Ape, created an images directory, and am repeatedly getting this error: * Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 102, in publish * Module Zope.App.startup, line 217, in commit * Module ZODB.Transaction, line 234, in commit * Module ZODB.Transaction, line 340, in _commit_begin * Module ZODB.Connection, line 452, in commit_sub * Module apelib.zope2.setup.TmpStore, line 66, in load OverflowError: requested number of bytes is more than a Python string can hold I think with Ape we will not need to run a python method, if we can distribute the dbtab.conf file and have the user install it (finding the right directory for it took me a while...). But it looks like Ape directories are global so the user would probably have to create one manually. It would be nicer if an Ape mount point could be created/administered entirely in the ZMI, without requiring the user to muck with the filesystem.
