Thanks...I have no idea how to do that unfortunately. This is the first time I've built python from source. I just followed the build instructions in the tarball and "it worked." At least, I have a working python 2.3 in the location I specified for "--with-python" when building zope. From various list messages about this same error message I get that there is some mismatch involving UCS2 vs. UCS4 compiled pieces - if I grok correctly...?
Right. If you install Python using configure --prefix=/opt/python-2.4; make;make install and configure Zope using configure --with-python=/opt/python-2.4/bin/python2.4; make; make install you should never get into such trouble. Somehow your environment or setup must be broken. Possibly you're installing Zope over an existing Zope installation with possibly old zopectl/runzope files inside the 'bin' folder which won't be replaced by "make install". So check the "python" configuration within your bin/zopectl|runzope files. -aj
