I believe that on windows this will require Python 2.2, which should unofficially work with new versions of Zope. The issue here is that Carsten (or someone else) will need a C compiler to compile this version of Python with, and they will also need to build Zope on a machine with that same compiler, which means whoever builds the Python binary will also need to have built a Zope install for them too. I haven't done this for windows, so I'm not sure of the exact details. I would try and see if someone on the plone-users list or on #plone on irc.freenode.net has tackled this already, since (I think) there are a fair amount of Plone users on Win32. This does also mean, however, that one will need to set up and install after getting a working Zope: - CMFCore, CMFDefault, CMFTopic, and DCWorkflow from cvs (cvs.zope.org) - Plone 1.0.1 tarball (includes CMFPlone, Forumlator, Forumlator?) - Bits needed to run Zope as an NT service Sean -----Original Message----- From: Chris McDonough [mailto:chrism@zope.com] Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2003 6:50 AM To: TANNERT,CARSTEN (HP-Germany,ex1) Cc: zope@zope.org Subject: RE: [Zope] FW: HELP !!! Not without someone to volunteer to compile a largefile version of Python for you. I'd ask around on comp.lang.python. - C On Thu, 2003-02-20 at 09:36, TANNERT,CARSTEN (HP-Germany,ex1) wrote:

I am so sorry to bother you with that but unfortunately it's windows system and I installed the standalone version of Plone with zope.

Can I do it anyway ???

Depends on your operating system, but if it's UNIXlike, typically it's:

download Python from http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.1.3/Python-2.1.3.tgz untar and ungz it cd to the directory that results

run: CFLAGS='-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64' OPT="-g -O2 $CFLAGS" ./configure --prefix=/some/directory/Python make make install

Then change the Zope "start" script's "hash bang" line to point to /some/directory/Python/bin/python.

Thanks for your help !!!

You need to compile the Python which Zope uses to use "large files". http://www.python.org/doc/lib/posix-large-files.html.
