[Zope] japanese encoding

[Andrew Milton]

+-------[ Aaron Maupin ]----------------------
| Perhaps I should also mention that I can log into the server, open up a 
| python console, and type:
| 
|  >>> import japanese
|  >>> text = 'blahblah'
|  >>> text = unicode(text, 'utf-8')
|  >>> text = text.encode('japanese.iso-2022-jp')
| 
| with no problems.
| 
| 'japanese' is installed in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
| 
| I removed my recent /home/USERNAME/lib/python2.4 'japanese' install and 
| now 'import japanese', 'print japanese' within Zope reveals that Zope is 
| using the same /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/japanese as the python 
| console.
| 
| However I still get an encoding error in Zope Python scripts or External 
| Methods with the above code... code that works fine in the Python console.
| 
| Is there some sort of security within Zope that's stopping me from 
| accessing the encoding?

try doing

import japanese.aliases

and see if that causes an error that's otherwise being hidden.
