[Pkg-zope-developers] zope3-sandbox instance fails to start

[Ralph Green, Jr]

Package: zope3-sandbox
Version: 3.1.0-1

 I installed zope3 and the zope3-sandbox.  The details for the
zope3-sandbox say that it is an instance that should start.  I accepted
the default port of 8031 when installing the sandbox.  When I attempt to
connect to the Zope3 sandbox from my browser, it always fails.  I looked
in the /var/log/zope3/sandbox/transcript.log and I see this error
message(the section between the dashed lines):
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
zope.configuration.config.ConfigurationExecutionError:

 I am new to Zope3, and I don't know what should be in the file, but I
got the sandbox running by doing the following:
  sudo touch /usr/lib/zope3/lib/python/zope/interface/README.txt

 I see there was a file named README.ru.txt, so I surmise that the
person testing this package was from Russia.

 I have not changed any configuration files from their default values
and I don't think any of my config files would be useful for this, since
the problem seems straight forward.  If there is some file that would be
useful, I will be happy to supply it.  This bug has been verified by me
to occur on 3 machines.

I am using Ubuntu Breezy(Linux karen 2.6.12-9-686 #1 Mon Oct 10 13:25:32
BST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux) and libc6 2.3.5-1ubuntu12
