Hi Nick,
Following the leads your questions gave us helped us get the site up and
working in Linux finally. (Fortunately the site is still in development, so
downtime wasn't a major issue. ;)

This was a big key to getting it to work. With the site working in Windows,
we were able to use the export/import function, and the errors we got in
trying to do so were reduced when we went to the latest version of Plone for
Linux.

We ran an update on all of our software, which seemed to reduce a few more
errors on attempting the import. Also, I originally said that we had all of
the same Python modules that we had earlier (particularly PIL), but a lot of
our errors when we ran zopectl debug were missing python modules. We had to
reinstall docutils and PIL, since they weren't showing up. We also had to
install programs like pdftohtml & wvWare for our AttachmentField product. So
you were right--missing or outdated Python modules and programs was our
biggest hangup.
It's great to be back up and running! Thank you very much for pointing us in
the right direction!
Neal
