Okay, yahooing around I found I have to set the path. But I still get this error: root@server167:zope/instance2/var (177) set PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/zope/278/lib/python root@server167:zope/instance2/var (178) python /usr/local/zope/278/lib/python/ZODB/fsrecover.py Data.fs Data.fs.recover Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/zope/278/lib/python/ZODB/fsrecover.py", line 80, in ? import ZODB ImportError: No module named ZODB The python is the correct one. I re-set python so that the one that comes up first in the path is the one Zope uses. TIA, Nancy ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
