Unfortunately the person who managed the old Zopeinstallation hasn't left any documentation about what additional products and extensions he installed.
There is no need to document such things. A simple look into "lib/python/Products" (or, maybe "$INSTANCE_HOME/Products") shows you what products are in your 2.5.1 installation. Never document things, that can be directly observed...
So, a simple export/import of the whole project doesn't work. In a former post on this mailinglist I read something about copying the contents of Zope/lib/python/Products, Zope/Extensions and Zope/var/Data.fs from the old to the new installation. But after doing so and starting the new Zope process there occur many errors on the console and the process dies.
Whenever, you have Zope startup problems: * activate Zope logging (--> "doc/LOGGING.txt") * start Zope * look into the logfile. * if necessary, post relevant parts ("PANIC" and "ERROR" messages) of the logfile Dieter
