I am a new person looking into Zope. I downloaded the latest versions of Zope & various products in the last two weeks.

I am having problems installing the Archetypes Product. It comes with two packages called generator & validation which need to be installed using "python setup.py install" which puts the built files into <Zope>/bin/lib/site-packages

However zope cannot find the "generator" module on startup.

I have tried to put the same package into lots of other locations like lib/python, lib/python/product, bin, ... BUT all to no success.

Could someone help me install this product?

I think that the latest Archetypes may ship with the ability to treat generator and validator as Zope Products. You can try, at least. Otherwise, the packages should go in something like lib/python/site-packages, which is usually under /lib or /lib/local, but could also be done under /home. Make sure that this location is included in the Python path Zope uses. --jcc -- "He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster.
