Zope nubie here: Been playing (TM) with zope (its a hobby actually) on win98rev2 lately just to see how it works in an ms environment as opposed to linux. On several occasions now I have seen the following error while installing various products. Most recently this occurred on installing the ZDP toolset. error: ConflictError: ("'\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x06'", '<extension class App.ApplicationManager.ApplicationManager at 00FEA520>') with the application not installing of course. Can someone explain this notation to me as I have no clue as it to it meaning beyond the general and its reaosn for occurance. application: ZDPtools test system: win98rev2 zope: stable latest 2.4.3 python: zope supplied 2.1.1 Chris H. PS: thanks for answering all my questions in the past. Still learning...:)
