[Zope] Zope and ODBC Test

[Roland Reumerman]

Apparently the Test tab page of the ZODBC connection object does not work 
properly. Zope 2.1 always raises an "unpack sequence" error, no matter which 
platform (NT, Win98) or database backend (Oracle, Access, InterBase) you 
use. On the other hand there seems to be no trouble when you Test a ZSQL 
object, so for normal use there is no real issue once you know that.

It is very frustating, however, when you're a Zope newbie (like me) and 
think it doesn't work at all because you cannot even make it work on the 
ZODBC connection test page, preventing you from trying it with a ZSQL 
object.

I hope this is useful for other people who experienced the same thing, or 
are about to.

Roland
