[ZODB-Dev] ZEO starting/using problem

[Tino Wildenhain]

Hi Jim,

cvs checkout of ZEO from cvs.zope.org gives me
a version I can install, run tests and start
ZEO according to the docs, however, connecting
works to (even the logfile shows this perfectly)
but then nothing happens. A connect to Zope
results in a hang. It seems it cannot retrieve
an object from ZODB.

So I installed ZEO from
 http://www.zope.org/Products/ZEO/ZEO-2.0.tar.gz
which seems to be the same version (according to
the changes.txt, but - the docu which is missing
in the CVS version comes here?!)
With this version installing does not work as documented
( error: option --HOME not recognized)

Connecting Zope to that version brings up:
AttributeError: ClientStorage instance has no attribute 'sortKey'

According to the changes.txt of Zope its a new feature.
So CVS version must be newer then 2.0 but not stable.

What can I do?
