[Zope] five zcml addview question

7 Nov 2007

      I am trying to create simple content type with zope 2.10.4 and five.  I have performed the following:

   - created a content interface 
   - created a content type class implementing the interface and extending both Persistent and SimpleItem
   - created zcml class entries for the content type
   - created zcml browser entries for 'addform' and 'editform'

  I am trying to get Zope to automatically create the forms based on the content schema.  Once these steps were completed, I found my content type in the ZMI add menu.  However, once I selected my content type, I got an error (see below).

  The error looks like it is missing a 'main_template' object.  Any ideas what might be wrong?
