I think I might see the problem, on my installation I moved the entire DCOracle2 directory to /lib/python/Products, in fact I think I compilied it in there, but that shouldn't matter. Try and remove the DCOracle2 directory from lib/python/Products and move the whole enchilata from tmp and restart your zope. I don't think there is anything specific that needs to have python 2.1 but I'm not 100% on that. If it doesn't work try to recompile it again and repeat the steps above. here is the ls-l from my DCOracle2 in /lib/python/Products total 176 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 31 1969 binaries -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9784 Nov 5 08:17 CHANGELOG -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 10126 Oct 24 14:41 DABase.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11048 Dec 16 09:51 DABase.pyc -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7005 Aug 10 10:14 DA.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4983 Dec 16 09:51 DA.pyc -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9454 Nov 5 08:15 db.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7499 Dec 16 09:51 db.pyc drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 16 09:51 DCOracle2 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Dec 31 1969 DCOracleStorage drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 31 1969 doc drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 16 09:56 dtml drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 31 1969 icons -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4113 Aug 10 10:14 __init__.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 671 Dec 16 09:51 __init__.pyc -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 819 Aug 7 20:28 INSTALL -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5011 Aug 8 05:15 install.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1598 Jul 24 2000 LICENSE.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 885 Aug 27 12:12 Makefile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1688 Aug 7 20:36 MANIFEST drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 31 1969 proof -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4480 Mar 26 2001 README -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1892 Mar 26 2001 setup.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7187 Oct 9 11:05 SP.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5268 Dec 16 09:51 SP.pyc drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Dec 16 09:50 src drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 31 1969 test drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 31 1969 tests Let me know if that helps.

Hi Zachery,

That is very strange, what OS are you running, version of python etc? How did you go about installing the product? From /lib/python/Products you should have a folder called DCOracle2, what are the contents of that folder?

Redhat Linux 6.2, running 2.2.17-33.beosmp kernel

Python 1.5.2

This is the binary Zope 2.3.2 installation ( Zope-2.3.2-linux2.tar.gz )

[root@www /root]# ls -l /usr/local/zope/2-3-2/lib/python/Products/DCOracle2/ total 288 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 51179 Oct 25 14:46 DCOracle2.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 42565 Dec 18 15:15 DCOracle2.pyc -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1725 Jan 24 2001 __init__.py -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 114 Dec 18 15:15 __init__.pyc -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 179549 Dec 18 15:23 dco2.so

I've got the rest of the DCOracle2 package that I downloaded in /tmp:

I was under the impression that I only needed to copy the DCOracle2 folder inside that to lib/python/Products/ in my Zope home.

Thanks for everything.
