[Tim Peters (tim-one)]

Zope 2.7 requires Python 2.3. You should use Python 2.3.3 if possible. The logging module Zope wants here doesn't exist in the Python 2.2 you're using.

[Andreas Jung (ajung)]

Status: Pending => Rejected

As Tim suggested:

- use/re-install Python 2.3.3
- re-install Zope

Closing this issue because this is not a Zope problem.
