Dear All Ok, today is my first day using Python and Zope so my question, hopefully will NOT be too dumb... :) I am trying to merely bring zope back up. I think I did all the steps in INSTALL.txt, modify the access file to reflect the new password. I have tried both the web server that comes with Zope and also my own Apache setting, cannot get in either way. With the Zope web server, I get this error: Traceback (innermost last): File "serve.py", line 92, in ? ZopeHTTPServer.main(args) File "/usr/local/Zope-1.9b1-src/ZopeHTTPServer/ZopeHTTPServer.py", line 454, in main start(module_file,host,port,threading,env) File "/usr/local/Zope-1.9b1-src/ZopeHTTPServer/ZopeHTTPServer.py", line 405, in start set_published_module(module_file,BoboRequestHandler,env) File "/usr/local/Zope-1.9b1-src/ZopeHTTPServer/ZopeHTTPServer.py", line 401, in set_published_module __import__(name) # to catch problem modules right away File "/usr/local/Zope-1.9b1-src/lib/python/Main.py", line 103, in ?

Any help is much appreciated. thanks --Vincent Warm Regards Vincent Yau Mpath Interactive http://www.mplayer.com
