Hi I am trying to use ZTopics to create a visual hierarchy. I've got ZTopics installed ok but I am having problems with using them.
If I create a top level ZTopic all is well and the ztopic will filter my catalog fine. However, if I try to create a hierarchy -even if only one level deep, I get the following error.

I haven't a clue if the problem is with ZTopics or the lexicon stuff within zope.
Anyone know what's going on here?
Chris McDonough <chrism@digicool.com> responded:
From what I remember, the TextIndex code wants to acquire the catalog's Vocabulary subobject. If you created your catalog without a Vocabulary (I think this is an option during the instantiation of a catalog), this can occur. This is arguably a bug. The vocabulary object should probably not be acquired. Do you think you can submit this to the "Collector" at Zope.org (http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector)?
Umesh replied:
The catalog in question is the portal_catalog from the PTK which has an accompaning Vocabulary object.
I will do as you requested and submit this to the Collector.

btw. I had to apply the following patch to ZTopic to rectify a mis-behaving user interface.

The 'portal_catalog' object is actually a wrapper around a standard ZCatalog instance. I would look at 'ZTopics.Topic._contentsSet()' to see what it is trying to do with the catalog. I would log also log this as a PTK issue: http://www.zope.org/Products/PTK/Tracker rather than in the Collector (I don't believe it is a Zope issue, per se).
