Hi, for all Windows cps- zoep users: The Zope_Instance at C:\ was not correct but now I have got him: C:\Programme\CPS3.4.0-3\Data\ There is a subfolder import and Product. Import works great, i am not sure about Products yet, but it should be working, too. Frank Frank-braucht-Hilfe wrote:
Hi Maurits,
thank you very much. This is great. I found the Instance-Folder. I didnt know anything about this folder before. And there, as it should be, there are the folders "Products" and "import" aund "Extensions". Everything should be fine now, I did search the two other folders over and over again, I could have searched them for ages ...
The Folder is called Zope-Instance and is located at C:\
Thanks Frank

Hi,
Hi Frank,
I am very new to Zope, Zope is running fine, but I dont know the Products-Folder to copy new Products:
I have never run Zope on a Windows computer, so do not take my answer to be the final word on this, but I will give it a go.
zope 2.94 C:\Programme\CPS3.4.0-3\Zope\lib\python\Products C:\Programme\CPS3.4.0-3\Zope\skel\Products
I have never used CPS, but I guess the directories are used in the same way as normal Zope. Adding anything here would only affect CPS, not any Zope 2.9.4 instances.
C:\Programme\Zope-2.9.4\lib\python\Products
This is the Products dir that is used by all Zope instances; it is a part of core Zope . Normally only core Zope products should be here and you should not add anything to it manually. But adding your own products here *would* work I guess. Try it when everything else fails.
C:\Programme\Zope-2.9.4\skel\Products
When you create a new Zope instance, this is the Products directory that gets copied to that instance. You could put some basic products in here that you want to have in every new Zope instance that you create. But: adding products here will *only* affect *new* instances, not instances that you have already made.
ZMI is working fine, nuxeo cps, too. Have I to create a new Folder somewhere, I want to add Products like calzope cpsgroupware?
These products should be added to the Zope instance. The directories you mention above contain source code used by instances, but they are not instances themselves.
I would expect the Zope instance to have been created in Documents and Settings or in My Documents; but that is a guess. You could let Windows search for any directories with the name 'Products'. That should turn up some more hits. Or create a new Zope instance (maybe call C:\Programme\Zope-2.9.4\bin\mkinstance or something like that) and see where the instance is created.
I have a similar problem with the Import folder. Which one is the right, just importing inside a folder of the ZMI?
It should be a folder called 'import' in the same directory as the Products directory of your instance. It should be automatically created for you when you create a new instance.
Many thanks I am really stuck and tried for more than one day
I hope this helps. My answers are based on my experience with Zope on Linux though; Windows may handle things differently, so sorry if I am putting you on the wrong track.
