OK, I must be missing something. I have a product I have created (with lots of ZClasses), which I wanted to move to a new "clean" database (the one that came with beta1). I export the product, move to the new system, try to import the product and get (MasterStore is the name of the product): The object MasterStore does not support this operation Traceback (innermost last): File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 256, in publish_module File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 161, in publish File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 154, in mapply (Object: manage_importObject) File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 98, in call_object (Object: manage_importObject) File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py, line 476, in manage_importObject (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions) File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/OFS/CopySupport.py, line 381, in _verifyObjectPaste (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions) Copy Error: (see above) ------------ What am I doing wrong here? I can create a distribution and get it to install, but then I don't see all of my ZClasses, etc. so that I can continue to improve on them. Thanks for info. for this newbie. Bruce -- Bruce C.
