Jeff, Looks like you've happened on a real bug. rotor() is used when building and loading pyp files but is no longer provided with Python. You should file a bug report. lib/python/App/Extensions.py lib/python/App/Product.py both contain references. If you do not need cross Zope compatibility you should be able to safely remove the calls to rotor objects. Alternatively, you can write a rotor object which does nothing and use that. Rotor is used to "encrypt" and "decrypt" products. This is an obsolete feature of Zope and generally not used (hence, no bug reports). If you must have compatability, you can download Python1.5 and take the rotormodule extension (it's in C) and use it. You'll possibly have to upgrade the API to conform with Zope 2.9.1 and Python 2.4.2. Me, I'd strip out rotor and be done with it. On Tue, 14 Mar 2006, Jeff Gentry wrote:

Scary enough, but obviously this is dead code...otherwise Zope would not work. Okay ... I will try upgrading Zope (which I've been meaning to do anyways) and see if that changes things.
So I upgraded to Zope 2.9.1, using Python 2.4.2, and get the exact same problem. I should note that if I make an empty product, ie just "add product", enter it and go to distribute that I get this same error.
exceptions.ImportError Sorry, a site error occurred.
