ZPT File Complications

Frequent ZPT Opening Issues

Zope is Not Installed

If you attempt to load your ZPT file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open ZPT Files". Usually, this is because you do not have Zope for %%os%% installed. The typical path of opening your ZPT with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.

Tip: If you don't have Zope installed, and you know of another program to open your ZPT file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".

Outdated Zope

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Zope Page Template file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Installing the latest version of Zope from Open Source is recommended. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.

Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of ZPT file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).

Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening ZPT files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.
