I've been developing in my personal linux machine in Zope 2, while my production site were still working with Zope 1.10.1. Today was the day to publish some new features. But I couldn't put Zope 2.0.1 to work in an AIX 4.1.4 machine!:-(( Zope spent *minutes* to present the default screen. Couldn't go further. I've already had installed python 1.5.2 (Zope1 was installed with 1.5.1). After linking some configuration files (as told in PLATAFORM/AIX.txt) everything compiled fine, except for some warnings in zlib module. I've deleted the zlib since I already have it with my python. The problem? I run the start script and everything looks fine. When I try to connect server:8080/ the browser contacts the server but no answer. After more than 5 *minutes* zopes default home page appears. If I try to go to the manage page just after a lot of time I get the login dialog. Even after waiting a lot the management screen doesn't appear. When I go to lib/python/ and try to "import Zope" I get :

...

...

import Zope Traceback (innermost last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "/web/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py", line 94, in ? import ZODB, ZODB.ZApplication, imp File "/web/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/ZODB/__init__.py", line 85, in ? import sys, ExtensionClass, TimeStamp, cPersistence, Persistence ImportError: from module ExtensionClass.so No such file or directory

If I insert the /web/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python dir as the first entry in sys.path, module Zope imports. Then I try to get a connection and it fails:

...

...

import sys sys.path.insert(0, '/web/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python') import Zope app = Zope.app() Traceback (innermost last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? AttributeError: app

I've already tried a lot of things, starting zope with different users. Recompiling, reinstalling, etc.. I'd like any advice. Tips to debug this are welcome. I've already exhausted my possibilities. regards, Desperate Paulo -- Paulo Eduardo Neves maito:neves@email.com
