Thank you Dieter, just one thing I forgot to mention...

...

But while compiling the python modules I get this:

...../Products/PythonScripts/zbytecodehacks/USExec.py:425>>: SyntaxWarning: local name 'error_msg' in '_WriteGuardWrapper' shadows >>use of 'error_msg' as global in nested scope 'model_handler' def _WriteGuardWrapper():

...../Products/PythonScripts/zbytecodehacks/closure.py:12>>1: SyntaxWarning: local name 'n' in 'make_adder' shadows use of 'n' as >>global in nested scope 'adder' def make_adder(n):

These are warnings only. Ignore them...

...following this, the script exits: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There were errors dUring Python module compilation. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/www/zope. So, no new zope install... But how can this be? I just downloaded the latest zope-2.5.1_2 and the ports installer 'found' my python 2.1.3, installed yesterday. What's wrong? Ken
