[Zope] Zope with ZsapdbDA

3 Sep 2002

      Hi,

    I'm having with the DA for SAP DB (ZsapdbDA) and i was wondering
if someone could lean me an helping hand.
    When i try to create a connection I get an error page with the
following text:

Invalid connection string: tst@matrix test test

Traceback (innermost last):
  File C:\PROGRA~1\Zope2\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 150, in

BadRequest: (see above)

The parameters on the connection are correct since I've connected
successfully through SQL Studio.
Since this could mean my installation for the DA was not that correct,
I'll describe how I've done it.
First, I downloaded and copied the adapter to the products folder.
Then I've downloaded the python modules and copied the files to the
folder ZsapdbDA\DCsapdb\sapdb and I've also copied the file sapdbapi.py
to the folder ZsapdbDA\DCsapdb.

When I run Zope on the command line I get no error message concerning
this product, but when I try to create a connection, kaboom.
Any clues/suggestions?

thanks in advance,

Vitor Varalonga

PS: the python modules version I used is 7.3.00.25 for win32 and
    Python 2.1, but I also test with version 7.3.00.21a.
