I apologize for the blatant newbie question here, but I was following the documentation trying to create a ZClass, and unless I'm mistaken I don't have a ZClass in my list of objects to create. Is this a product that I have to download first? It doesn't sound right, but if it is where is it because it's not on the list? Also, I downloaded the ZPhotoAlbum-1.0 product to install into zope as well. I copied the .zexp file into my import directory, but it errors out when I try to import it. Is this because of my ZClass problem? Thanks ------------------------------------------- Lucas Vogel, Software Developer Exponent Failure Analysis Associates, Inc. lvogel@exponent.com (623)587-6739
I may possibly have the answer. The ZClasses stuff is only available within Control_Panel/Products/... Importing ZClasses products in the regular folder area causes problems like what you describe. Regards, -- Jim Washington Lucas Vogel wrote:

You have to start at the Control Panel / Products screen and create a product first. Then within the new product, you will see a ZClass option. This is documented at http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Guides/ZDG-HTML/ZDG.6.html and at http://www.zope.org/Members/lstaffor/zProperties
Also, I downloaded the ZPhotoAlbum-1.0 product to install into zope as well. I copied the .zexp file into my import directory, but it errors out when I try to import it. Is this because of my ZClass problem?
What error messages? -- Loren

Where are you trying to create the ZClass? The proper place is inside a Product created from the Control Panel's product management section. Go to Control Panel, select "Product Management", then click "Add", give it an id of, say, "MyProduct". Now, click on "MyProduct", and then drop down the factory list and select "ZClass". You should be on your way. If this doesn't work, let me know.

I don't know what's wrong with this. Perhaps there is a problem with your ZClasses, or perhaps you haven't installed another product that PhotoAlbum depends on (say, Photo? :-))
