I was running Zope2 successfully under RH Linux 6.0. using pcgi behind Apache. I had a hardware problem and by the time I was able to fix it, I had to do some reinstalls, particularly of Python. Zope didn't like it. Now I have it almost working, but when I try to go the initial Zope page, I get a traceback that I can't figure out.

<snip> I don't know about BIGFLOAT specifically, but since you seem to be running the RPM version of Zope, based on your dir names, you ought to verify the integrity of your RPM installation using the following: prompt> rpm -V python Zope Zope-pcgi If everything is OK, it won't print anything. Since your hardware problems may be system-wide, you can also verify -ALL- of your RPMs, using: prompt: rpm -Va Expect to see a lot of output as many RPMs appear changed when you edit their config files and such. You just have to look at each problem and decide whether it is serious or not. And if you see simple user/group errors (UG) or permission errors (M), you can fix them with either: prompt> rpm --setugids Zope prompt> rpm --setperms Zope This is very useful after installing new zproducts, since many of the tarballs change the owner/perms of Zope directories. Bad bad. -Jeff Rush
