No, sorry Amos. I have the same problem under Zope 1.10.2. I tired this at
home, running Win98, and I checked the source of the Product
initialisation. When I twiddle with it a bit, swicth off the try/except
errorhandling, I discovered that it is the product.dat file. Here is the
traceback:

Traceback (innermost last):

It looks like the Lever isn't platform independent.
