I had this same problem. The thread module is an optional python module, so I had to recompile python, making sure to add thread support in (./configure --with-threads). After that it worked fine. I haven't had too much of a chance to play around with it, though I was able to get and put files using NcFTP just fine. On Mon, 25 Jan 1999, Dave G wrote:

I installed everyhting, modified my start.py file, then created a startMedusa file using the old start file. I did this mainly so I could use the Zope compiled python or my own installed python.
I get the following traceback
Traceback innermost last File "start.py". line 23 in ? import zope_handler File "zope_handler.py", line 17, in ? import thread Import error: no Module named thread
This occurs with my Slackware python or Zope's python. Neither will load the thread module. I didn't file a bug report because this isn't really a ZServer problem, but shouldn't the standard Zope distribution include the thread module? I'm thinking I need to change my Python here.
