[Zope] Problem with Python Win32 Extensions

[volker.wend@efgbsh.de]

I do not agreee with Dieter :-),  I just installed Zope on a windows machine
and I got the following modules:

[c:\program files\zope\bin]dir win32*.* /s1b
C:\Program Files\Zope\bin\lib\win32
C:\Program Files\Zope\bin\lib\win32\win32api.pyd
C:\Program Files\Zope\bin\lib\win32\win32clipboard.pyd
C:\Program Files\Zope\bin\lib\win32\win32event.pyd
[...]
C:\Program Files\Zope\bin\lib\win32\lib\win32serviceutil.py
C:\Program Files\Zope\bin\lib\win32\lib\win32serviceutil.pyc
C:\Program Files\Zope\bin\lib\win32\lib\win32traceutil.py
C:\Program Files\Zope\bin\lib\win32\lib\win32traceutil.pyc


Perhaps Igor made an upgrade from an older Version and his z2.py got
overwritten. I had the same problem. The install progam modified the swhome
and the update not.

# This is required path hackery for the win32 binary distribution
# that ensures that the bundled python libraries are used. In a
# win32 binary distribution, the installer will have replaced the
# marker string with the actual software home. If that has not
# happened, then the path munging code is skipped.
swhome=r'C:\Program Files\Zope'
if swhome != 'INSERT_SOFTWARE_HOME':
    import sys
    sys.path.insert(0, '%s/lib/python' % swhome)
    sys.path.insert(1, '%s/bin/lib' % swhome)
    sys.path.insert(2, '%s/bin/lib/plat-win' % swhome)
    sys.path.insert(3, '%s/bin/lib/win32' % swhome)
    sys.path.insert(4, '%s/bin/lib/win32/lib' % swhome)
    sys.path.insert(5, '%s' % swhome)

Kind regards,
Volker

I do not think so.

Use one of the other Python's to run Zope.
