There's nothing at all in my logs about CMF, but here's what the log has to say abut NuxUserGroups: ------ 2003-03-04T19:52:42 INFO(0) NuxUserGroups.BasicUserWithGroups Patching BasicUser ------ 2003-03-04T19:52:42 INFO(0) NuxUserGroups.LocalRolesWithGroups Patching RoleManager ------ 2003-03-04T19:52:42 ERROR(200) Zope Could not import Products.NuxUserGroups Traceback (innermost last): File /zopedirectory/lib/python/OFS/Application.py, line 531, in import_product File /zopedirectory/lib/python/Products/NuxUserGroups/__init__.py, line 11, in ?

(Object: rolesForPermissionOn) ImportError: No module named CMFCore.CatalogTool I'm afraid this isn't very helpful to me. Does it give you any clues? Dieter Maurer <dieter@handshake.de> wrote:

I installed NuxUserGroups, but the product was broken. The traceback error said "No module named CMFCore.CatalogTool."

I presumed that I had to install CMF, so I did. After installation, CMFCore, CMFDefault, and CMFTopic appear in my products list unbroken, but I can't create a CMF Site object (it should be in the pulldown menu, right?). And NuxUserGroups is still broken.

The weird thing is that I now have the option of giving local roles to groups -- I just can't create the groups.

* For CMF, is it mandatory that Zope be installed using /var/zope as my INSTANCE_HOME and /usr/local/zope/ as my SOFTWARE_HOME?

No.

...

* If that's the problem, what do I need to change about CMF to make it work with my own installation?

Have you activated Zope logging (--> doc/LOGGING.txt) and looked in the log file. You may find valuable hints.

When you report problems, please remember to tell the precise problem: Error Type, Error Value and Traceback.
