My problem was that I was using Mozilla. It works with Internet Explorer. Anand _______________________________________________________________________ I too am experiencing the same roadblock. The product is quite simple - I have one class, and it derives from CatalogAware and ObjectManager. It has a few string properties, and a view. If I try to create an object in the same folder as the product, it works. The same user, however, cannot create the object in a different part of the folder hierarchy. Where would I look to check "Create ZClass Instance" permissions? Or perhaps you have solved this problem already? Anand William P Hewitt writes:
For four days now, I have been trying to build some simple products - using the Zope Book instructions on product creation and the basic objects that are created when you follow the instructions.....

Everything seems to be fine. You are sure, your ZClass is named "tbContainer"? You are sure, the "Create ZClass instance" permission is mapped to some permission, the current user has? When you like (and your Product does not reference non-core Zope products), you can export the product and send me the result (zip'ed or gzip'ed please). I will try to find out what happens.
