Oh wait, i didn't read the error message good enough. It turns out that somebody forgot their doc strings for the function. Adding them, caused it to work. I still find it a tad puzzleing that it only griped about the lack of docstrings for non root url-object calls. Is there a good reason for lack of doc strings on absolute_url, or is this something that should be added? sRp Thus spake Scott Parish (sRp@portico.org):

If i go to:

http://mymachine.com:8080/absolute_url

i get that which i would expect; it returns the absolute url of that object.

Why is it that when i go to:

http://mymachine.com:8080/any/other/object/absolute_url

I get a zope error? Does acquisition not work?
