Nice for you

Do you have different domains under the same tree?
In my installation there are about 10 domains on 1 server.
9 domains work perfect, 1 does not.

It doesn't seem to be a good day for you, does it?

Your definition of the word 'stable' seems to be
the Microsoft definition, which doesn't work too.
There I pay for software and it isn't stable anyway.

I don't think that the people of DC think the same
like you. They are interested in a stable and working
Zope, and therefore their support on this list is
professional and perfect. Of course Zope is not
open source only because of philantropic thoughts.

There should not only be the fact, that it is free,
but also the fact, that a declaration of 'stable'
really is trustable.

OK, let's say 2.3.0 is really stable. What is the difference,
which made Zope go away on my redhat server? Is there anything
different in installing 2.3.0 than 2.2.5?

I made the upgrade exactly as described in the Upgrading-Howto.

>Why didn't you test 2.3 betas and caught these errors?

Because I am not a programmer. I am an administrator and
webdesigner. Without this class of users, there would be
no use for Zope. Except for your hobby.
