I tried to reproduce the behavior in my vanilla Zope 2.2.1. Not only, I was unable to do that (as I expected). I was also unable to reproduce your original "id" problem! Zope 2.2.1 apparently no longer has the bug, I analysed for Zope 2.1.6. Did you do your 2.2.1 check by exporting your site from 2.1.6 and importing it into Zope 2.2.1? If so, then probably Zope 2.2.1 is very confused by the strange Zope 2.1.6 ZClasses. Please rebuild your "theatre_class" ZClass from scratch in Zope 2.2.1 (at the same place, it is in Zope 2.1.6!). Create an instance and check whether the id bug is still present -- as I said, I do no longer see this bug. If the bug is no longer there, give your ZInstances Id's in Zope 2.1.6 (by renaming). Then export them and reimport into Zope 2.2.1 (you may try with a single one; if it works do it with all). If you still see this strange folder dependent behavior, then, you may have lost parts of your site. Maybe, DC can help you in this case as sites exported from 2.1.6 should be importable into 2.2.1. I will not analyse such an export/import problem (unless I get myself hit). If you *rebuild* your ZInstances *from scratch* in 2.2.1 (start with a few) and you continue to see the strange folder dependent behavior, you may contact me again. Obviously, such a thing should not happen. Dieter
