As luck would have it, I found Zope 2.8 in Macports. Ran mkzopeinstance without trouble, but starting up zopectl yields: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/Zope2/Startup/zopectl.py", line 322, in <module> main() File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/Zope2/Startup/zopectl.py", line 280, in main options.realize(args) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/Zope2/Startup/zopectl.py", line 91, in realize ZDOptions.realize(self, *args, **kw) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/zdaemon/zdoptions.py", line 273, in realize self.load_schema() File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/zdaemon/zdoptions.py", line 321, in load_schema self.schema = ZConfig.loadSchema(self.schemafile) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZConfig/loader.py", line 31, in loadSchema return SchemaLoader().loadURL(url) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZConfig/loader.py", line 65, in loadURL return self.loadResource(r) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZConfig/loader.py", line 159, in loadResource schema = ZConfig.schema.parseResource(resource, self) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZConfig/schema.py", line 27, in parseResource xml.sax.parse(resource.file, parser) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/ lib/python2.6/xml/sax/__init__.py", line 33, in parse parser.parse(source) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/ lib/python2.6/xml/sax/expatreader.py", line 107, in parse xmlreader.IncrementalParser.parse(self, source) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/ lib/python2.6/xml/sax/xmlreader.py", line 123, in parse self.feed(buffer) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/ lib/python2.6/xml/sax/expatreader.py", line 207, in feed self._parser.Parse(data, isFinal) File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/ lib/python2.6/xml/sax/expatreader.py", line 301, in start_element self._cont_handler.startElement(name, AttributesImpl(attrs)) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZConfig/schema.py", line 103, in startElement getattr(self, "start_" + name)(attrs) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZConfig/schema.py", line 306, in start_import src = self._loader.schemaComponentSource(pkg, file) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZConfig/loader.py", line 176, in schemaComponentSource __import__(package) File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZServer/__init__.py", line 41, in <module> from HTTPServer import zhttp_server, zhttp_handler File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZServer/HTTPServer.py", line 45, in <module> from HTTPResponse import make_response File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZServer/HTTPResponse.py", line 23, in <module> from ZPublisher.HTTPResponse import HTTPResponse File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/__init__.py", line 24, in <module> from Publish import publish_module, Retry File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py", line 20, in <module> from Request import Request File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Request.py", line 13, in <module> import HTTPRequest File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/ HTTPRequest.py", line 18, in <module> from BaseRequest import BaseRequest File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/ BaseRequest.py", line 41, in <module> from AccessControl.ZopeSecurityPolicy import getRoles File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/AccessControl/ __init__.py", line 17, in <module> from Implementation import setImplementation File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/AccessControl/ Implementation.py", line 98, in <module> setImplementation("C") File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/AccessControl/ Implementation.py", line 51, in setImplementation from AccessControl import ImplC as impl File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/AccessControl/ImplC.py", line 18, in <module> from cAccessControl import rolesForPermissionOn, \ File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/AccessControl/ SimpleObjectPolicies.py", line 82, in <module> from DocumentTemplate.DT_Util import TemplateDict File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/ __init__.py", line 21, in <module> from DocumentTemplate import String, File, HTML, HTMLDefault, HTMLFile File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/ DocumentTemplate.py", line 112, in <module> from DT_String import String, File File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/ DT_String.py", line 19, in <module> from DT_Util import ParseError, InstanceDict, TemplateDict, render_blocks, str File "/opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/ DT_Util.py", line 19, in <module> from html_quote import html_quote, ustr # for import by other modules, dont remove!

Has anyone had any luck with Macports (using zope) under os x 10.6 (Snow Leopard?) Any advice is GREATLY appreciated. Dan On Jan 5, 2011, at 12:23 PM, Dan Gaibel wrote:

So I ended up going with Python 2.4.6 via Macports. I really want to get this to work with Zope 2.8... configure works fine when I use this python, but then when I make, I get:

"/opt/local/bin/python2.4" "/home/zope/Zope-2.8.6-final/setup.py" \ build --build-base="/home/zope/Zope-2.8.6-final/build- base/python-2.4" --build-lib="/home/zope/Zope-2.8.6-final/build-base/ python-2.4/build-lib" --build-scripts="/home/zope/Zope-2.8.6-final/ build-base/python-2.4/build-scripts" --build-temp="/home/zope/ Zope-2.8.6-final/build-base/python-2.4/build-temp" running build running build_py error: package directory 'build/lib/macosx-10/6-i386-2/4/Products/ StandardCacheManagers' does not exist make: *** [build] Error 1

I see this StandardCacheManagers directory does exist in /home/zope/ Zope-2.8.6-final/lib/python/build/lib.macosx-10.6-i386-2.4/Products/ StandardCacheManagers but maybe this is not the right one? Any thoughts?

Thanks,

I apologize if this questions belongs in a different forum, but...

I am having a heck of a time getting Python 2.3.5 installed in OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard server.) I need it for a Zope 2.8.6 installation. OS X comes with Python 2.6.1 and I guess my plan is to have 2.3 installed alongside it.

Neither MacPorts (a framework for installing ports of various programs to os x) nor Fink (essentially a port of apt-get / dpkg for os x) worked. MacPorts didn't have a port of python2.3 and Fink wouldn't compile.

What I did to get it to the point where it is now:

configure with:

./configure --enable-framework MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5 --with- universal-archs=all --enable-toolbox-glue=false

then run:

export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8

next edit the resulting Makefile and remove the -Wno-long-double flag (it only appears once)

finally, running 'sudo make' yields the error:

libtool -o Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python -dynamic -prebind - seg1addr 0x10000000 libpython2.3.a \ -framework System -lcc_dynamic -arch_only ppc - install_name /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/ Python - compatibility_version 2.3 -current_version 2.3 libtool: can't locate file for: -lcc_dynamic libtool: file: -lcc_dynamic is not an object file (not allowed in a library) make: *** [Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python] Error 1

I haven't been able to figure out that last error; commenting out the line it stems from breaks things, deleting just that particular flag (lcc_dynamic) breaks things, and googling didn't turn up any answers.

If this is an inappropriate questions for this list, I apologize... where should I post?

Thanks!
