Prob with binary Zope

[Julián Muńoz]

Mandrake 7.1 on AMDk6, and a recents sql rpms, and Zope 2.4.0 binary:

README indicates the following:

TIP: If you are using a binary package of Zope, you need run setup.py

with Zope's python executable. Otherwise, Zope (ZMySQLDA) will not

be able to find _mysql.

------

If I use the zope's python binary I got this error: (So zope source is required???)

I guess your binary Zope package doesn't include the files necessary to compile Python C extension modules.

Alternative approach: Get and install Python 2.1.1 on your system, and run:

$ python2.1 setup.py build
$ /home/julian/Zope/bin/python setup.py install
or else:

$ python2.1 setup.py install --install-dir=/home/julian/Zope/lib/python
