[Zope3-Users] RE: Upgrading from 3.2.0 to 3.2.1

2006-08-09 Thread Kim L. Jacobsen
Originally I thought, that buying a printed book didn't make much sense
for fast changing "product" :-) like Zope 3. But maybe I'll go ahead do
it anyway.

Regards,
Kim

Thanks, that was the kind of solution I was hoping for. I guess that if
you want to use this method, you need to install the products under
INSTANCE_HOME in stead of SOFTWARE_HOME.


Zope 3 doens't have "products" anymore, it just deals with Python  
packages which can be located anywhere on the PYTHONPATH. Of course,  
it usually makes sense to put instance-specific packages into  
$INSTANCE/lib/python. I'm pretty sure that this is documented  
(instance's have a README.txt file; my book also suggests this).

You can have more than one Zope 3 installed, e.g. you can install Zope
3.2.1 in parallel to 3.2.0 and switch your instance over to 3.2.1 (by
editing the start scripts in $INSTANCE/bin). You can also install Zope
3.2.1 into the place where 3.2.0 was installed; your instance should
continue to work. Such a thing isn't recommended when upgrading between
major versions, though (3.2 to 3.3).
