I am brand new to Zope and just started working through the Tutorial. When I get into the /manage page, the top folder does not have "Plutonia" next to the folder icon. I also have the folder "QuickStart". How do I get to or create the new site Plutonia that is listed in the tutorial?
I am running on a SunSparcstation 20. Using Solaris 7.0
You can't. The 'Plutonia' folder name is never shown (well, maybe with some deep Zope-Zen). I run three Zope sites and none of them have a name for the top folder, but it doesn't matter. Plutonia is a demo site that the Digital Creations guys put together as a 'taster'. All the non-Zope 2.0 stuff posted on the list will work on the setup you have now (except of course for where people are talking about additional products). The QuickStart material is a good place to get familiar with Zope, but to start doing serious things with existing databases, you'll need to get one of the Database Adapators (DAs) (such as the MySQLZDA product) from the Zope/Downloads area and install that. Also download as much documentation as possible - Zope works differently to other web server platforms, so you need to approach it 'slightly sideways, with one eye squinting'. hth tone. ------ Dr Tony McDonald, FMCC, Networked Learning Environments Project The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 222 5888 Fingerprint: 3450 876D FA41 B926 D3DD F8C3 F2D0 C3B9 8B38 18A2
