Divmod software is also supposed to run on Windows (we have buildbots for Windows machines, and we're working with Microsoft to get even better Windows support). <BR/><BR/>Could you do me a huge favor? Either email me the full traceback that you get when you try to run the tests on Windows, or (even better) submit a ticket here:<BR/> <A HREF="http://divmod.org/trac/newticket" REL="nofollow">http://divmod.org/trac/newticket</A><BR/><BR/>If you submit a ticket, you'll need to register for an account. If you prefer to just send me the traceback, I believe my email address is accessible via my blogger profile.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again, James!Duncan McGreggorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155270977759488515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8825992.post-30840846875931627012008-04-12T22:06:00.000-07:002008-04-12T22:06:00.000-07:00Hi, is Twisted/Divmod supposed to be Unix/Linux/Ma...Hi, is Twisted/Divmod supposed to be Unix/Linux/Mac only?

I'm actually away from the office this week but will be back on the weekend -- let me take a look at it then. I may have some questions for you about your setup, so it might be good to transition this to some email correspondence (I've updated my blogger profile so that my email address is now viewable). Once we get it sorted it, I can post a follow up message here for posterity :-)Duncan McGreggorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155270977759488515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8825992.post-70116772349068934022008-01-23T07:19:00.000-08:002008-01-23T07:19:00.000-08:00thanks for the tutorial. this looks exactly what I...thanks for the tutorial. this looks exactly what I'm looking for...<BR/>Unfortunatelly, I have problems installing the examples. The first problem was easyly fixed: zope.interfaces must be installed.<BR/>But the second one...<BR/>When trying to install Nevow (Divmod/branches/athena-tutorials-2272-3/Nevow),<BR/>I get a traceback with the last lines:<BR/>File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/twisted/python/reflect.py", line 432, in namedAny<BR/> obj = getattr(obj, n)<BR/>AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'function'<BR/>This is happening when trying to import setupcommon.<BR/>Are there any known problems with python2.5?

Their mail list seems to be very young (Aug 2007 is the earliest post I could find), and it looks like there are only three core developers.<BR/><BR/>None of that's bad, and if there's community interest, there's every chance of that changing.<BR/><BR/>They use libevent; Athena uses Twisted. They use their own HTTP server, Athena uses the Twisted HTTP server. Looking at their code examples, I find the Athena/Nevow approach that I laid out in the tutorial much more cohesive and thorough: I made an effort to capture in the tutorials the same conceptual unity that exists in the Athena code base. I do not get that same sense when I look at the Orbited code. Then again, I only spent a few minutes looking it over...<BR/><BR/>Right now, given the history and my knowledge of Twisted, I trust that code base far more. But hey, who knows what the future holds?Duncan McGreggorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155270977759488515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8825992.post-22303297463153904642008-01-02T16:06:00.000-08:002008-01-02T16:06:00.000-08:00Hello DuncanReally great tutorials!.I am intereste...Hello Duncan<BR/><BR/>Really great tutorials!.<BR/><BR/>I am interested in athena, nevow solutions.
