Here is my platform:
OS: Mac OS X
Python: 2.4.4
Zope: 2.10.4
Plone: (will be 2.5 when I get zope running)
also, is there a good zope board to put up messages on.
Thanks,
chris

By installing Zope *properly* from source. The traceback within the other
posting indicates that you did not call "make install" or "make instance".
That's the common error pattern when not following the official Zope build
instructions.

cheers.

Usually you do "configure --prefix=....; make install" and later you create
your own instances using bin/mkzopinstance from within the installed Zope
software home.

Thanks again for all your help. (I hate being a newb.)

Special Thanks to Steve McMahon who pointed me in the right direction.
It turns out that the zlib instance on my machine was incorrectly
compiled, which left my python install hanging. So, here is what I
had to do to get my local install working:
1)Download zlib.x.x.tgz and unzip/extract
2) do a CFLAGS='-fPIC' ./configure
3) make... make install
Great. Now download Python2.4.4
4) configure... make... make install...
Now Zope
5) Grab the zope tgz. (unzip/extract)
6) configure... make... install
7) /opt/Zope-2.10/bin/mkzopeinstance.py
Yay.
Here is an email dump from Steve which lead me down the correct path.
Thanks again steve!
Hi Chris,
It's zlib that needs to be made with -fPIC set, and before building
Python. There's an oddity in the Python build process when it comes
to
zlib: it tries to use the static library archive to build a shared
version for itself. On many platforms, particularly 64-bit ones, that
doesn't work unless zlib was built with -fPIC.
So, this doesn't really have anything to do with the Zope build,
except
that Zope needs to use Python's zip support.

Well, 'configure' checks for the zlib module and gives you a decicated
warning (reading console messages is sometimes useful). And likely you got
a compilation error when calling "make"...also reading the console message
helps :-)
