[Zope] Sorry, an error occured. LinuxPPC

[Jimmie Houchin]

Hello,

I have recently built Zope using Sean Summers Zope src.rpm.
This is for Zope 1.10.2.

I am trying to get Zope running on LinuxPPC R4.1 which is based on RedHat
5.0 Hurricane sources.

I have made dozens of attempts to get Zope running.
Install LinuxPPC, compile Python, compiled Zope. Repeat...
I have been doing this for a couple weeks now.

Maybe now I'm smart enough to yell help. :)

I have yet to successfully run Zope.

I have had situations where doing python serve.py and Python would
Segmentation fault. I have never seen ./start.sh do anything. Possibly
because Python was seg faulting.

The closest I have gotten is getting ZopeHTTPServer started on a recent
re-install. I installed LinuxPPC as default as possible. I did not do KDE,
Gnome, WindowMaker or anything which my change anything. The current window
manager is fvwm. I installed Python from the CD installer, straight as
default. The cd rpm does not have threads configured. Anytime I compiled
Python with-thread ZopeHTTPServer seg faulted.

Anyway... I start up ZopeHTTPServer with:
# python serve.py

It runs appropriately. I open up Netscape and login and go the manage screen.

I click on the Control Panel.
I click on database management and get this error.

Sorry, an error occured.

I go back to the Control Panel and click on Shutdown and get this error.

Sorry, an error occured.

I am able to add objects, DTML Method, etc. Change objects.

Just no database management and no shutting down.

I have the var directory and all it's content set to 766.

Any ideas.

Thanks,

Jimmie Houchin
