[Zope] Re: TextIndexNG3 install problem

[Owen K]

Problem solved.

MinGW built the pyd files in 
C:\Zope-Instance\Products\TextIndexNG3\extension_modules\build\lib.win32-2.3\zopyx\txng3 
, but for some reason the zopyx folder was not on the Python search path 
(under Windows).
The fine manual (here http://www.python.org/doc/essays/packages.html and 
here http://docs.python.org/ref/import.html ) describes that Windows module 
search for import has differences from other operating systems.

One solution (not too elegant), is to move the zopyx folder into a folder 
that is being searched.
I moved the zopyx folder to the site-packages folder.
(Setting $PYTHONPATH to C:\Zope-Instance\Products\TextIndexNG3 might also 
have worked, or putting the right zopyx.pth file somewhere might have 
worked).

By "solved" I mean the TextIndexNG3.1.5 configlet now appears in the 
Plone2.1.2 add/remove products page without any errors. And the event.log 
traceback errors have disappeared.

Thanks everyone!
