i use a python application which stores (web)objects to relational DB (=mySQL) two installations running on win98SE and win2k - each using zope and the DB on the same machine i can say it works fine (i don't have much workload on it) <hth> fritz (-:fs) Am Samstag, 2. November 2002 16:41 erhalten:
Greetings- I have a fairly mature Python application which uses MySQL for the database. I would like to switch over from a single machine application to a web based app (and maybe even make some money!!), and thought Zope would be the logical choice. The past 2 weeks have had me running through the examples in the Zope book and the Zope "Bible", and I *think* I am ready to create a project. Then I read the the creators of Zope do not reccommend using MySQL with Zope on a Windows box. Rats! So... 1. Is this still sound advice? 2. If so, what other Open Source Database is out there. I really would like data/time data types, so that would leave Gadfly out, right? Plus. my database is getting fairly large (~5 Meg), so I'm not sure I want to load it all in memory.
Thanks for any advice you can supply! Greg Lindstrom Vilonia, Arkansas
