A few messages on this list have me worried about Python 2.2. If I'm installing Zope 6 on a Red Hat Linux 7.3 OS (kernel 2.4.18-3), will Python 2.2 cause me problems? Thanks in advance, Jon
Yes. Zope requires python 2.1.3. You can't wiggle around this, at least not easily. Zope 2.7 will require 2.2.something. The good news is 2.1 and 2.2 can coexist peacefully if you know what you are doing. You should check the archvies before asking questions since we've answered this zillions or possibly gazillions of times.

I was of the impression zope used its own copy of python (and it's currently 2.1) if this is incorrect, could someone provide chapter and verse?

It depends on installation technique. If you download a binary distribution from zope.org, it is set up with its own binary. If you download and compile a source distribution from zope.org, then it will use the system default python, unless you tell it otherwise. (That is, you can override what binary python will be, but the download does not include the source for python itself, and if you have multiple python's, then you can tell it which to use.) If you use a linux distribution's zope, then it will probably use the python that is distributed by the distribution. I know of none that do not use their distributions python, but hey, lets be careful! Jim Penny

Along this same discussion thread, has anyone installed Zope on the new RedHat 8.0? Does it work fine? Any problems? And which version of Python is on RH 8.0? Any comments from those in the trenches?

hi, works without probs. you can choose: - install the linux-binary-distro of Zope [very easy!] - or install the Zope-Source-distro and Python2.1.3-rpms from python.org [easy enough]. redhat ships with python2.2 which is NOT supported by Zope 2.5/2.6! cheers, maik -- Maik Jablonski __o www.zfl.uni-bielefeld.de _ \<_ Deutsche Zope User Group Bielefeld, Germany (_)/(_) www.dzug.org
