Yup. ./configure --with-python=/path/to/your/python > > -The ability for each instance to have separate Product directories. > Some users want plone, some don't. Some develop their own software. This is inherent in INSTANCE_HOME behavior. The result of "mkzopeinstance" will contain a Products directory which may contain Zope software. Many instances can be configured to run from a single software home (a software home is the result of "make install") > > -The ability to start/stop zope without access to /proc (or the > equivalent on other unices) on Linux.

In a Zope 2.7.0 source directory: ./configure --prefix=/opt/zope-2.7.0 make make install In a Zope 2.7.1 source directory: ./configure --prefix=/opt/zope-2.7.1 make make install ... then 'mkzopeinstance' from either. - C _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
