Hi.

I'm new to Zope. I've got Zope working by itself, and I have been trying to

get PoPy installed. I followed the 2 line installation instructions that came with ZPoPyDA.

When I start Zope (./start) I get the following errors:

2001-09-20T17:04:32 ERROR(200) Zope Could not import Products.ZPoPyDA Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/OFS/Application.py, line 558, in import_product File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/Products/ZPoPyDA/__init__.py, line 23, in ? File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/Products/ZPoPyDA/PoPy_browser.py, line 67, in ? File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/Products/ZPoPyDA/PoPy_DA.py, line 26, in ? File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/Products/ZPoPyDA/PoPy_db.py, line 26, in ? The PoPy module is not installed

Zope then continues to startup as normal.

Here's what I did to install it:

1) tar zxf ZPoPyDA-2.0.8.tar.gz -C zope_home_directory/ 2) restart your zope server

Here's my current config. This is a pretty fresh install of RedHat7.1.

RedHat 7.1 postgresql 7.1.3 Zope 2.4.1

And the version of PoPy I'm trying to install is ZPoPyDA 2.0.8.

Any suggestions?

Yes, you have completed only half of the installation process. You also have to compile and install PoPy. PoPy is a C-extension module for python that provides the actual adapter that ZPoPyDA uses to talk to PostgreSQL. Note: You did not say how you installed your Zope or your python. It makes a difference. The PoPymodule.so must be placed somewhere in the PYTHON_PATH used by your zope. Source installed zope's generally do not modify the system PYTHONPATH, and it would usually go in /usr/local/lib/python2.1/site-packages, or something like that. Binary installed Zope's generally DO modify the system PYTHON_PATH. (But I forget exactly how; I think there is a python directory in your $ZOPEHOME). As to pyschopg being actively revised... Well, so is PoPy. The least release of PoPy is what, 3 weeks old? Jim Penny

Much thanks,
