Thread: regd installing win-psycopg

I am not a Plone user, so take my suggestions with a grain of salt.  The
psycopg2 packages I provide do not have any Plone packages with them.  I
think you need te ZPsycopgDA package, too.  It is a directory in the
source files,
http://www.psycopg.org/psycopg/tarballs/PSYCOPG-2-4/psycopg2-2.4.tar.gz,
and should be copied to your Products directory.

Hi,

psycopg2 is a python binding for postgres, not a ZOPE product. Therefore
the subpackage ZPsycopgDA is necessary. It is included in the psycopg2
source package.
The best way to install is to add psycopg2 as egg to your buildout
and copy ZPsycopgDA to your Products folder.

On this side I want to remind on #29 that would make it easy to install
psycopg2 and ZPsycopgDA in a Plone buildout.

By the way, Plone/zope2/lib/python/Products folder was never a good place
to add Add'ons. Neighter in buildout based installs nor in old fashined
zope installs.
