Folks
Is there a need to "un-install" a Zope Instance?
Only if you want it removed. :) "rm -rf" works fine.
I had installed under /directoryOne
I copied it zope to /directoryTwo
Well, that can be done, but it's tricky. It'e easier to "mkzopeinstance /directoryTwo" reinstalling the products and copying over the data.fs, IMO.
From this i assume that the databse also holds information about previous locations and instances,
No, but some configuration files does, and if you have local products you may want to delete all *.pyc files.
"un-install" my old copy properly somehow, not just delete the directory, is that correct?
No, you can just delete the instance directory. It's the copying that is the problem. The Data.fs can generally be copied without problems though. -- Lennart Regebro, Nuxeo http://www.nuxeo.com/ CPS Content Management http://www.cps-project.org/
