I' ve been using zope for a while, but the single greatest frustration is installing new zope servers with mysql support. I've written to Andy Dustman, maintainer of MySQLdb and ZMySQLDA, who was kind enough to provide the usual boilerplate answers which will not work. So I'm back on the zope list asking about success stories. As everyone knows there are at least two different mysql modules. My last linux success was with MySQLdb-0.1.1 and ZMySQLDA-1.1.3 on Zope 2.1.2 and it's working okay. I've installed the DA on a windows machine successfully. I need to be able to install the latest versions of MySQL, Zope, Python, MySQLdb, and ZMySQLDA. The zope website has a couple of write-ups. I believe that I used the one written by alanpog to perform my last success. If you have installed the most recent zope with mysql support using python 2.0 on a mandrake 7.2 box in the past few weeks, I want to know how you did. I'm poor, but am reluctantly willing to pay a few bucks to the first couple of answers that work for me. Of course, all ideas will be tried; good ones will be rewarded. I'm tired of reintalling these products. Thanks, Joe Hewitt
