[Zope-dev] Racks and export/import.....

[Steve Spicklemire]

Hi Folks,

   Is there any reason why a Rack shouldn't be 'exportable'?

I have a Rack of objects, but when I export/import 
(as a .zexp) and then call "getItem" I'm getting:

<TD WIDTH="90%">
  <H2>Zope Error</H2>
  <P>Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource.
  </P>
  
  <P>
  <STRONG>Error Type: AttributeError</STRONG><BR>
  <STRONG>Error Value: _setRack</STRONG><BR> 
  </P>

The wierd thing is it seems to work with some racks and not others....
