Hi Ivan. Script Python scripts permit a limited number of modules to be used for security reasons. You will get these types of errors whenever you try to import a module that is not allowed. The best way to use other modules in Zope is by developing a product - like a simple tool product. You can import whatever modules you would like and place security restrictions on the methods you create (in a way that is consistent with how they will be used and who will use them). I think on zope.org you will find an example tool product and example content type products. I believe there are also examples of example plone and cmf products as well. This will be of interest if you are developing in one of these CMSs and provides a good starting point. If you search the archives of this list you may also find additional information on allowing specific modules into your Script Python since I recall this coming up before. From my perspective, the security measures in Zope are there to help you create secure applications.

Also, I have a python script that I would like to import a python module, but when I run it Zope complains the user does not have authorization. Is there a way around this?
