Re: [Zope] Zope Book Beta
I wholeheartedly agree with Jason and Chris. I would very much appreciate a PDF version that could be easily printed, or read with Adobe's Reader. I hope there is no hesitation over making a PDF version available because of fear it will cut into sales of the bound volume. I think it would be just the opposite. I can easily think of examples (the original Tcl/Tk book comes first to mind) where the printed copy closed the sale of the bound volume for me. I'll be purchasing multiple copies of the Zope book for my shop regardless. (I tried to no avail to do a pre-order from OReilly's set yesterday :) Getting a chance to proof an early version and perhaps contribute to making it better only increases my desire to purchase the eventual publication. -- Tim Lynch Information Technology Section A.

[Zope] problem with PTK and LoginManager
Hi, I can't seem to get PTK to install. When I put both PTKBase and PTKDemo in the Products directory, PTKBase is OK, but PTKDemo is 'broken'. The traceback is: Traceback (innermost last): File "E:\I-10\lib\python\OFS\Application.py", line 387, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "E:\I-10\lib\python\Products\PTKDemo\__init__.py", line 3, in ? import Portal, ZODBMember, SQLMember, PersistentUserSource File "E:\I-10\lib\python\Products\PTKDemo\Portal.py", line 5, in ? from Products import LoginManager ImportError: No module named LoginManager LoginManager is installed in Products and is listed as OK in the Control Panel/Products display. I just did a complete re-install of Zope 2.1.4 (no other products at this time); I grabbed PTK from the CVS tree, the version of LoginManager I'm using is what came with the PTK. I'm running under WindowsNT with zope installed as a service. Haven't tried things on the Linux side of my machine as I need to get this stuff working under NT as a deliverable. Any ideas why Portal.py can't find LoginManager? I've tried editing the line in Portal.py from from Products import LoginManagerto from Products.LoginManager import LoginManager but that didn't seem to work Any help much appreciated.
