[Fle3-users] Fle3 1.0b export error

[Bas van der Linden]

Hi all,

We're experiencing some problems on FreeZope.org wrt the export of 
an old FLE3 instance.

We've installed both 1.0b and 1.2b, to give people the chance to upgrade
to a new FLE themselves, since it's not possible to upgrade easily systemwide.

However, in order to upgrade, people need to export the contents of their
current FLE instance and import them into the new one.

And that export seems to break in some cases.

Below you'll find the traceback of one case where it went wrong.

Since it is reproducable, I can ask the owner of this FLE if he's willing
to let us make a copy for you to have a look at, if you wish.

Error: TypeError
len() of unsized object

Traceback (innermost last):

I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
