Is there a traceback? I presume the error is that
no mail is sent when registering--Issue 01.
Is that right?
(need gforge...)

No you don't. If you need it in order to address the problem,
then we have to give it to you and teach you how to work in
the bash shell on Linux/FreeBSD. That is overhead I want to
avoid. If it can't be avoided, then we stop, learn bash, and
mark off dev areas on new staging server. Priydarshan would
need to make this call.

What methods on the filesystem raise errors?
Can you supply a traceback?

It is a different zope installation, on a new machine called
supreme. That machine runs on the FreeBSD operating system.
Not all files are different; it is looking at the same Data.fs,
which is on the production machine, vasudev.

You might be right. However, the eol problem we had recently
was os related. The traceback showing "\r\n" in the python
script revealed that.
