i just built PIL 1.1.3 myself for use in zope without a hitch. are you sure you followed the step for compiling the _imaging.so extension? try to locate it. this step must be taken *before* running setup.py build and setup.py install. jens On Wednesday, May 1, 2002, at 05:54 , Dirk Datzert wrote:

Hi all,

I have a problem PIL with Zope and imaging products

Error Type: ImportError Error Value: The _imaging C module is not installed

System Linux 2.4.16, Python 2.1.3, Zope 2.5.1, PIL 1.1.3

PIL is in /usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages/PIL

_imaging.so is in /usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages/PIL and /usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages/

in /usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages/ is also a PIL.pth with 'PIL' in it.

Help anybody can give a hint where to look for the solution.

Thanks, Dirk
