IMPORTANT! Zcatalog path handling changes in 2.3
Gang, In order to resolve untold number of situations where the Catalog does "stupid" things and returns less than useful information, we have heavily modified the information stored in the Catalog (and generated by CatalogAware). You can read about this here: http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ZCatalogVirtualHostFix/ You can find a tarball that contains everything updated here: http://www.zope.org/Members/petrilli/zcatalog-pathsupdate.tgz If you untar this in the root of your Zope installation you should get a new Zcatalog that has all the new code in it. Please read and test... This is especially important for people who are using Squishdot/etc. We hope to make a full code release with 2.3a2 sometime very soon. PLEASE take a look at this, and provide feedback ASAP. Chris -- | Christopher Petrilli Digital Creations | petrilli@digicool.com Where Zope comes from

I would happy to, it looks like it does what I need (having siteaccess). However, I don't see a clear cut description what's changing and how. What needs to be done (in easy to understand language) to make sure it all goes smooth, etc. It's a big update, with lots of files. Will this work with 2.2.4? Is it dangerous? If you're asking for guinea pigs (bweep!) then I'm not sure I should be it, as I'm still trying to figure out what's going on in many ways. Ciao! -- There are no bad ideas, just bad jokes.

It's actually not as big an update as it looks... I simply grabbed the packages, there's much less changed than it looks like :-) The big differences are all explained in the link above the file.

It should work fine with 2.2.4. Chris -- | Christopher Petrilli Digital Creations | petrilli@digicool.com Where Zope comes from

It's one step off the link given before, and really the one page you need to read: http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ZCatalogVirtualHostFix/UpgradeFAQ

If you run a copy of your site on this code, it will be evident immediately whether you have problems or not. If that's hard to do, you may want to at least set up a mini-site and export some test data to it. Authors of Products that use ZCatalog: PLEASE give feedback and try to document any problems or workarounds for your Product on the AffectedProducts page (linked from UpgradeFAQ in several places).
