Philippe, Wouldn't it be more correct to say "we don't use Metacello"?

This is a configuration issue. >From my point of view, as author of Zn, I can only say that I am very happy with the collaboration and openness of the Seaside developers to adopt Zn. They tried and used Zn as soon as it became available, it was included in builds and distributions, and there are enough abstraction in place to let people use whatever server they want. What should be the default is not for me to say, although it would make some sense on certain Pharo builds. Sven

seaside on pharo 1.4 w/ zinc (ConfigurationOfSeaside30 mcz attached)
by Pat Maddox March 5, 2012

March 5, 2012

Hi, I don't know how many people have successfully run seaside on pharo 1.4 or even tried to, and I've not seen it documented anywhere. I have it running and while many of the unit tests don't pass :( I can start up a zinc server and click through the example apps and some of my own apps fine. I've attached the .mcz file which excludes Comanche, Swazoo, and OmniBrowser from the default install group (OB is only used for the server manager I think, which is not very important, and I'm using nautilus on 1.4). I understand that this patch might break earlier stuff so with any luck Dale will be able to give me some tips on how to make it more compatible. Anyway, load up the mcz and then ConfigurationOfSeaside30 project latestVersion load: #('default' 'Zinc-Seaside') and to run a server ZnZincServerAdaptor startOn: 8282 and you should be set. note: I *just* got this "working" and it seems to work fine with my apps so far, but no promises that everything will go smoothly.
