[fritz steindl]

hi list,

installation of ZODB3-3-31.1.b2-win32 went well

when i try the first example i found on zope.org ...

v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v

from ZODB import FileStorage, DB

storage = FileStorage.FileStorage('mydatabase.fs')
db = DB(storage)
connection = db.open()
root = connection.root() 

root['friends'] = ['zope', 'python', 'zodb???'] 
get_transaction().commit()
 
connection.close()

v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v

i receive different error messages for my first, second, third try

afterwards the error message keeps constant

i thought of troubles with the path and moved around my python file but that 
didn't help anyway and especially the different error messages confuse me


can somebody please lead me to the right way ...


thanks a lot
