I wasn't very clear: I did install CMF-1-5.0 | in the Zope_Instance/Products directory. I've installed lots of | products! Its just that CMF-1-5.0 has no __init__.py in its base | directory - and therefore its not being picked up by Zope as a Product. | | *still confused* | . | FWIW I also unzipped other CMF "tars" and they too did not have this.
CMF is not a single product, but a suite of related productx. The INSTALL.txt says:
~ Link (or copy/move) the CMF packages into $INSTANCE_HOME/Products
It then provides examples of doing the linking on a windows box:
~ $ cd /var/zope/Products # /var/zope is INSTANCE_HOME ~ $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.5.0/CMFCore . ~ $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.5.0/CMFDefault . ~ $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.5.0/CMFTopic . ~ $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.5.0/CMFActionIcons . ~ $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.5.0/CMFCalendar . ~ $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.5.0/CMFSetup . ~ $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.5.0/CMFUid . ~ $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.5.0/DCWorkflow .
*Those* are the "products" of which CMF is made up.
The top-level directory, CMF-1.5.0, is not a package (hence it has no __init__.py) or a product; it is just the container for the products.

Tres and Tom, Thanks! David
