I and Lonestar created GNOMECN (www.gnome-cn.org) in Aug. 2004, and maintain it until Mar. 2008, and final close it in Oct. 2010. I’ve backuped it, and now, lets find it out and see what we did thoese years.

How I get it back?

Run Plone 3.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64

While the old gcn is run in an i386 Debian server, I need to install new Zope in the x86_64 env.

Build dependence
================

apt-get install gcc

binutils cpp cpp-4.6 gcc gcc-4.6 libc-dev-bin libc6-dev libmpc2 libmpfr4 libquadmath0 linux-libc-dev manpages-dev

apt-get build-dep python

build-essential debhelper debiandoc-sgml dh-apparmor docutils-common dpkg-dev g++ g++-4.6 gettext html2text
intltool-debian libdpkg-perl libgettextpo0 libhtml-parser-perl libhtml-tagset-perl libhtml-tree-perl libroman-perl
libsgmls-perl libsp1c2 libstdc++6-4.6-dev libtext-format-perl libunistring0 liburi-perl make po-debconf
python-docutils python-roman sgml-data sgmlspl sp

# Zope requrie python-zlib
apt-get install zlib1g-dev

Python 2.4.x
============

While 12.04 only support python 2.7, so I need to build python 2.4 from source.

Install python 2.4 follow the instruction at:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1976837

wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.4.6/Python-2.4.6.tar.bz2
tar xvf Python-2.4.6.tar.bz2
cd Python-2.4.6
# apply patch for build in x86_64 env
# configure
env CPPFLAGS=”-I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu” LDFLAGS=”-L/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu” ./configure –prefix=/home/gnome/python2.4
make -j4
make install

re-Install Zope-2.9.6
=====================

wget http://old.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.9.6/Zope-2.9.6-final.tgz
tar xvf Zope-2.9.6-final.tgz
cd Zope-2.9.6-final
./configure –with-python=/home/gnome/python2.4/bin/python –prefix=/home/gnome/Zope-2.9 –optimize

First startup
=============

Clean out all old .pyc which compiled with i386 python

find -iname *.pyc -delete
/bin/zopectl start

Zope is ok, bug plone instance broken, check log file:

Install PIL
===========

We need install PIL for ours fresh python2.4

wget http://effbot.org/downloads/Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz
tar xvf Imaging-1.1.7.tar.gz
cd Imaging-1.1.7
~/python2.4/bin/python setup.py install

Restart, Memory of gnome-cn.org…
