Can anyone tell me why I'm getting this traceback in a ZMySQLDA product on a new Zope site I've put up?

ZMySQLDA Import Traceback

Traceback (innermost last): File "/home/nnle/MEDFAC_SERVER/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 387, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/home/nnle/Zope-2.1.0b1-src/lib/python/Products/ZMySQLDA/__init__.py", line 106, in ?

The thing is, I have a MySQL library in /usr/local/python/lib/ and ... ...the path /home/nnle/Zope-2.1.0b1-src doesn't exist! :{

Busy today aren't I? I found that I had to 1) delete the product from the Control Panel/Products folder 2) compact the database 3) restart Zope .... but that still didn't get rid of it Fortunately, we were installing a tape drive into our Sun box today so we had to reboot the system. Strangely, the same error came up, but this time the directory did exist. Why I needed to reboot our box to get rid of that error message, I dunno, but it seemed to do the trick. But, I digress... The error above came from connections made to a Zope server using the pcgi wrapper, and it was driving me mad. The solution however, was to start up a ZServer (./start) of the same Zope installation, then I found that database operations worked on the pcgi 'server' too! (this is weird). hope this helps someone else out.
