Hello. I am setting up a new server for a client, who is asking for Redhat Fedora Core 1. The applications will be Zope 2.7 and Plone 2 based.
The Fedora Core 1 package list states Python 2.2.3 is part of the distro.
My understanding is that Zope 2.7, Plone 2, and Python 2.2.3 play well together. Is the correct? Are there issues I should be aware of?
I believe Zope 2.7 requires Python 2.3.3. You can get Python 2.3.3 RPMS for Fedora from http://www.python.org/2.3.3/rpms.html. These install "alongside" the existing Python 2.2 without disturbing it. Then you just have to tell Zope to use /usr/bin/python2.3 rather than /usr/bin/python.
Note also that Fedora Core 2 (currently at -test1, release in April) includes Python 2.3.3. Anthony -- Anthony Baxter <anthony@interlink.com.au> It's never too late to have a happy childhood.
