Hi list We have a legacy web service that is running on Zope 2.6.2 with Python 2.3.3 For various reasons - security, maintenance etc we have decide to try migrating this forward to a current version of python and zope. e.g. Python 2.6 + Zope 2.12.2 I have a new clean SUSE linux 11 installation with the correct python, setuptools and I am using virtualenv to create a sandbox I have installed the zope 2.12.2 and configured it in much the same way as the older system - (zeo with two data files, + 1 zope instance.) All is good and I can start up the instance and access the management pages. My next step is to get the Products list that we were using running. Here I have run into two problems 1. ExternalFile This fails to load with the error 'ImportError: No module named Interface' (stack trace below) I tested this with zope 2.11.4 and it works ok. 2. ZMySQLDA This fails with the message 'ImportError: No module named _mysql' again this works ok on zope 2.11.4 So I guess there is a key step that I am missing out or a path, or installation that is required. The main difference is that 2.12 is installed using virtualenv and then easy_install e.g. bin/easy_install -i http://download.zope.org/Zope2/index/2.12.2 Zope2 Are there known incompatabilities with these Products ? or is my installation just not quite right. Thanks Andrew stack trace for loading ExternalFile {code} /web/science_1/bin # ./zopectl fg /web/science_1/bin/runzope -X debug-mode=on 2010-03-11 14:28:22 INFO ZServer HTTP server started at Thu Mar 11 14:28:22 2010 Hostname: 0.0.0.0 Port: 8080 2010-03-11 14:28:22 INFO ZServer FTP server started at Thu Mar 11 14:28:22 2010 Hostname: 0.0.0.0 Port: 8021 2010-03-11 14:28:22 INFO Zope Set effective user to "zope" /web/science_1/Products/ExternalFile/ExternalFile.py:21: DeprecationWarning: MessageDialog is deprecated. import from App.Dialogs instead from Globals import MessageDialog 2010-03-11 14:28:22 ERROR Application Could not import Products.ExternalFile Traceback (most recent call last): File "/web/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Zope2-2.12.2-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/OFS/Application.py", line 596, in import_product product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/web/science_1/Products/ExternalFile/__init__.py", line 18, in <module> from ExternalFile import manage_addExternalFileForm, addExternalFile File "/web/science_1/Products/ExternalFile/ExternalFile.py", line 36, in <module> from IExternalFile import IExternalFile File "/web/science_1/Products/ExternalFile/IExternalFile.py", line 16, in <module> from Interface import Base ImportError: No module named Interface Traceback (most recent call last): File "/web/bin/runzope", line 8, in <module> load_entry_point('Zope2==2.12.2', 'console_scripts', 'runzope')() File "/web/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Zope2-2.12.2-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/Zope2/Startup/run.py", line 21, in run starter.prepare() File "/web/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Zope2-2.12.2-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/Zope2/Startup/__init__.py", line 87, in prepare self.startZope() File "/web/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Zope2-2.12.2-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/Zope2/Startup/__init__.py", line 264, in startZope Zope2.startup() File "/web/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Zope2-2.12.2-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/Zope2/__init__.py", line 47, in startup _startup() File "/web/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Zope2-2.12.2-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/Zope2/App/startup.py", line 58, in startup OFS.Application.import_products() File "/web/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Zope2-2.12.2-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/OFS/Application.py", line 573, in import_products import_product(product_dir, product_name, raise_exc=debug_mode) File "/web/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Zope2-2.12.2-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg/OFS/Application.py", line 596, in import_product product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/web/science_1/Products/ExternalFile/__init__.py", line 18, in <module> from ExternalFile import manage_addExternalFileForm, addExternalFile File "/web/science_1/Products/ExternalFile/ExternalFile.py", line 36, in <module> from IExternalFile import IExternalFile File "/web/science_1/Products/ExternalFile/IExternalFile.py", line 16, in <module> from Interface import Base ImportError: No module named Interface {code} {code} (web)horatio:/web/science_1 #
