Fw: Re: [Zope] startup error

[Michael Long]

I didn't know that was logic :)

Now I am really confused. What part of the "try...except...else" logic
is failing to get the error message. 

CODE SNIPPET:

  try:
    # Try to use custom storage
      m=imp.find_module('custom_zodb',[getConfiguration().instancehome])
  except:
    # if there is no custom_zodb,use the config file specified         
    # databases
      configuration = getConfiguration()
      DB = configuration.dbtab.getDatabase('/', is_root=1)
      Globals.BobobaseName = DB.getName()
  else:
      m=imp.load_module('Zope.custom_zodb', m[0], m[1], m[2])
      if hasattr(m,'DB'):
          DB=m.DB
      else:
          storage = m.Storage
          DB = ZODB.DB(storage)

RESULTING ERROR MESSAGE:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/opt/zope/lib/python/Zope/App/startup.py", line 52, in startup
   m=imp.find_module('custom_zodb',[INSTANCE_HOME])
ImportError: No module named custom_zodb
