Hi; I'm trying to install Zope and it chokes in this block: >>> if not READ_ONLY: pf = open(PID_FILE, 'w') pid=str(os.getpid()) try: pid=str(os.getppid())+' '+pid except: pass pf.write(pid) pf.close() <<< It specifically identified the *try* statement as the choke-point. How do I trouble-shoot this? TIA, BenO
