Hi Scruffy,

I'm blunck2 btw. If I missed responding to someone's question I apologize - the volume on zenoss-users has significantly increased in the past few months and I'm having a difficult time keeping up! If I dropped a response to a response I sent to someone's question feel free to ping me again directly with a "hey whats up with this answer?!" and it'll float up to the top of the list.

Regarding your 64 bit question...

Source based installs work under 64 bit Linux platforms. We're still choppy under Solaris 10, but Linux works on what we've tested (FC6 and CentOS 4.3). But source based installs aren't as easy to maintain as RPMs (imo).

We have a 64 bit RPM we built under CentOS 4.3. It links against 64 bit everything, including Python. If you'd like to try it out let me know and I can send you a link off-list.

If you want to use the official 32 bit RPM then you are correct in thinking that you'll need a 32 bit python. And once you get into that area you'll start needing a lot of other 32 bit stuff.

My recommendation is to try out our 64 bit CentOS 4.3 RPM. If it doesn't work you can take the src rpm and build a 64 bit binary RPM for your platform. That's worked for us every time...

Lemme know how you would like to proceed and I'm happy to help out.

I have been trying to get Zenoss to work and have come across this problem. Since there seems to be no solution posted because nobody answered blunck2's 64 bit question I thought I would jump in because, yes I am using 64-bit machine and a 64-bit operating system. Now, I expect I need to install 32-bit python, is this correct?

Has anyone got it working on 64-bit?

I have installed from the RPM (which is 32-bit).
