Hi, I'm using then the INSTANCE_HOME to have separate Zope instances use a base zope installation and a shared products directory with symlink's to the instance product folder. As described in the "How-To: Make your life easier with INSTANCE_HOME" by 4am. Now the LoginManager can't import anything from the ZPattern module. <start up error message> 2000-10-17T21:59:14 ERROR(200) Zope Couldn't import Products.LoginManager Traceback (innermost last): File /bigshare/zopeservers/Zope-2.2.2-base/lib/python/OFS/Application.py, line 397, in import_products (Object: string) File /bigshare/zopeservers/unitedrings/Products/LoginManager/__init__.py, line 1, in ? File /bigshare/zopeservers/unitedrings/Products/LoginManager/LoginManager.py, line 9, in ? ImportError: cannot import name SheetProviderContainer </start up error message> Now this works fine if I start Zope from the base Zope installation. So what goes wrong and why? Does I do anything wrong or should/could this be fixed in the product? If so I guess it would be practical to document som product author guidelines. Regards, Johan Carlsson
