[Zope] Zope on MacOSX?

14 Oct 2002

      I'm trying to build Zope 2.6.0b1 on MacOSX and am having some trouble.  If I
use Python 2.2.2 or Python 2.3a0 (aka CVS head), when executing the
w_pcgi.py script I get this traceback:

    building 'Products.PluginIndexes.TextIndex.Splitter.ZopeSplitter.ZopeSplitter' extension
    error: file 'Products/PluginIndexes/TextIndex/Splitter/ZopeSplitter/src/ZopeSplitter.c' does not exist
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "w_pcgi.py", line 39, in ?
        if __name__=='__main__': main(sys.argv[0])
      File "w_pcgi.py", line 37, in main
        import wo_pcgi; wo_pcgi.main(me)
      File "/Users/skip/src/Zope-2.6.0b1-src/wo_pcgi.py", line 33, in main
        import build_extensions
      File "/Users/skip/src/Zope-2.6.0b1-src/inst/build_extensions.py", line 24, in ?
        do('%s setup.py build_ext -i' % sys.executable)
      File "/Users/skip/src/Zope-2.6.0b1-src/inst/do.py", line 32, in do
        if i and picky: raise SystemError, i
    SystemError: 256

A quick foray into building 2.1.x on MacOSX ended in failure (2.1.x was
released before MacOSX was available).

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
