Hi Jens, thank you so much... now it works out of the box without problems..:-) To summarize this thread: If someone wants to use ZEO with latest Zope 2.6, DON'T use the official released ZEO 2.0, instead use: http://cvs.zope.org/ZEO/?only_with_tag=ZODB3-3_1-branch cheers, maik Jens Vagelpohl wrote:

use the ZEO code that's on the ZODB3-3_1-branch. there were some recent changes to ZEO and you need to upgrade ZEO to make sure to get something that interoperates well with the latest zope.

Hi,

I'm playing with ZEO2.0 and Zope-2.6 [CVS] [all running on the same machine for testing purposes as desribed in the ZopeBook]. I've installed ZEO as described in the ZopeREADME.txt and started the ZEO-Server with:

python2.1 /Zope/lib/python/ZEO/start.py -p 7700

The server works without any problems.

Then I created a custom_zodb.py in my ZEO-Clients-Root:

import ZEO.ClientStorage Storage=ZEO.ClientStorage.ClientStorage(('127.0.0.1',7700))

When I start my ZEO-Client, I get this error:

python2.1 /ZopeClient/z2.py -D

What's wrong with it? What's the problem with the 'sortKey'?

TYI, maik
