Hi, After reading http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/instancehome, I just transformed my standard Zope 2.6.2 installation (on RedHat 7) into a INSTANCE_HOME version, like this (view in fixed width font): / +-opt | +-Zope-2.6.2 (ZOPE_HOME) | | : | | `-lib | | `-python | | `-Products | +-Zope-2.6.4-rc1 | : | `-home `-zope +-shared_products | +-FrameTitle | +-FSCounter | `-ExternalEditor `-instances +-main (INSTANCE_HOME) | +-var | +-import here? | +-shared_products --> /home/zope/shared_products | `-Products or here? | `-shared_products --> /home/zope/shared_products `-test (other INSTANCE_HOME) +-var +-import `-Products This works fine, with one exception: I didn't manage yet to get Zope recognise the products in the shared_products folder. I tried a lot of variants of case and softlink location, but without success, and I couldn't find anything in the web. How exactly is this supposed to work? Are there any special __init__.py files needed anywhere? tia, Tobias
