I had an older version of LoginManager (0.3) installed on my default Zope installation (2.1.6) running on a RH 6.3 Linux. I downloaded and installed LoginManager 0.8.6 and then things started getting weird. LoginManager and PTK were both being reported as broken products. So, spent about 4 hours trying to understand what was going on (reinstalling - reading the zope.org and egroups) and then found out that I needed ZPatterns. So I downloaded the binary version (0.3) and installed that. However, when I tried to do the make part, I kept getting an error. After much investigation, I discoverd that I needed the Components library for the makefile stuff. So,I then had to download the entire Zope souce code and installed that into a new directory - and copied the components over to the existing zope directory. However the make still didnt work. Then I tried (un)taring Zpatterns into the new zope and tried to make and still problems. Tben I downloaded the source an older version of ZPatterns and installed that to the new zope and got the make to work eventually. Then i tried the same procedure on teh old zope and still no joy. Then I decided to copy over everything from the new zope to the old zope in the ZODB directory that was new. That seemed to do the trick and enventually after about 16 straight hours of pure frustration (for a newbie like me) i got the makefile step to go through without an error. However, when I restart zope, I now get a new error in the login manager traceback: Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 387, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/Products/LoginManager/__init__.py", line 1, in ? import LoginManager, LoginMethods, UserSources File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/Products/LoginManager/LoginManager.py", line 9, in ? from Products.ZPatterns.SheetProviders import SheetProviderContainer ImportError: cannot import name SheetProviderContainer I have no idea where to even start looking for the problem. Anyone have any hint or idea - I would really appreciate any help. Its been a very long and frustrating day :) Thanks in advance Demos __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get Yahoo!
