Brief note. Here's how I got grok running with python 2.6

As many would have known, earlier grok version runs on python 2.4 and 2.5 only.

Maartijn noted that grok 1.1 should run on python2.6

:

• virtualenv --no-sitepackages grok1.1rc1
• source grok1.1rc1/bin/activate
• easy_install grokproject ... ...
• grokproject --grokversion=1.1rc1 --zopectl Sample #get the grok version 1.1rc1 and do zope style control :

   Enter user (Name of an initial administrator user): admin
   Enter passwd (Password for the initial administrator user): 
   Enter passwd (Password for the initial administrator user):

   Installing eggbasket.

   zc.zope3recipes.debugzope: module references __file__
  

• cd Sample
• bin/zopectl fg :
