[Zope-DB] Newbie question: DCOracle2 installation

[David Wilbur]

I was having the exact same issue as Tena is stating here... or at least 
seemed to be =)

I have read thru the threads related to this, and i now have DCOracle2 
untared the file in [zope home]/lib/python/Products/ and left the name 
as is,  and all the other suggestions that Matt has made... and it works 
now.

but... if you happen to place it in [zope home]/lib/python as i did at 
first, everything tests correctly but when you start up zope and look at 
the add list then you don't see the DCOracle2 connection and stored 
procedures... so, i might suggest that you double check to see that you 
placed everything in the [zope home]/lib/python/Products/ directory.
