Tom, The obvious just occurred to me: I'll be you're trying this from an SVN checkout. The svn does not include all the many megabytes of third-party tarballs required to run the installer. (Wiggy has very reasonably requested that they be kept out of svn.)
So, to test the new UN+BO, you'll need to download it from Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/plone/3.0/3.0.5/+download/Plone-3.0.5-UnifiedInstallerBuildout-beta2.tar.gz (BTW, I expect to be doing a version for Plone 3.0.6 early next week. It will include the fix for the relative path issue discovered by Raphael.) Steve On 2/17/08, Steve McMahon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Tom, > > I'm at a loss as to what's not working here.
