Hi Paul, Nice to see another UK University trying Zope 8¬) Have you checked that zlib is actually installed, you should find it under somewhere like /usr/lib/python-1.5/zlib.py (I think there might also be a shared module for it somewhere, something along the lines of zlib.so or similar). If either of these files are missing then you need to get hold of them/create them. I find it strange that your copy of Mandrake 6.0 doesn't have deamon tho as mine does, as does Mandrake 6.1. If you'd like to sound out a few things with me by phone feel free to mail me privately (I'm in Cardiff btw) and I'll give you my number. I was up in Aber some time back for a Learning Technology Conference, and met some the people up there, buggered if I can rememebr any names though, the drinks flowed quite freely ;¬).

First off the first problem that I had was that when I tried to start the zope server nothing at all would happen, after looking at the /etc/rc.d/init.d/zope file I found that it was using the deamon command to load the server, I don't have such a command installed for some reason (Mandrake-Linux 6) so I removed the daemon command and simply started the server plainly. Does this make any sense at all?
Now when trying to start the zope server I get the following error:
File "z2.py", line 376, in ? exec "import "+MODULE in {} File "<string>", line 1, in ? File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py", line 95, in ? import Globals, OFS.Application, sys File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/Globals.py", line 91, in ? import TreeDisplay, string File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/TreeDisplay/__init__.py", line 86, in ? import TreeTag File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/TreeDisplay/TreeTag.py", line 95, in ? from zlib import compress, decompress ImportError: No module named zlib
This seems to tell me that I have the Python module zlib missing, however I have Python-1.5.2-2 installed so everything should work, right? I would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance.
