How do I install Products in Zope on Win2K
My apologies if this is the second copy of this arriving. My mail blew up just as I was sending it the first time. My problem. I've installed Zope ver 2.4.1 on Windows 2000 pro. It runs fine, but I want to try out the CMF. I've followed the instructions I think. It's hard to tell because all the instructions seem to assume its on a Linux type box. The instructions say: -Unpack the tarball into a working directory. For instance: $ cd /usr/local/zope $ tar xzf /tmp/CMF-1.1.tar.gz So, I downloaded the tarball and unzipped it into c:\temp Next I'm supposed to: -Link (or copy/move) the CMF packages into $INSTANCE_HOME/Products. For instance: $ cd /var/zope/Products $ ln -s /usr/local/zope/CMF-1.1/CMF* . So, using Windows Explorer, I moved the CMF-1.1 directory to C:\Program Files\Zope\lib\python\Products\ This is where all the products that show up in the Zope Products directory seem to be. Then I go to the Zope Control Panel and hit the Shutdown button, close my browser, restart Zope using start.bat and according to the instructions: -Restart Zope; verify that the CMF products loaded property, by examining them in Control_Panel/Product. -Create a CMF Site object. join, and begin adding content. Enjoy! Except that the CMF products don't show up in Products and I don't have a CMF site object option. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but it is REALLY frustrating! Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Talk to you soon, Gord Gordon W.

Are you getting any errors on running start.bat? What products are broken (look in Control Panel) I had a few issues on Windows...

I think that here is your problem! You should move the CFM-1.1 directory to C:\Program Files\Zope\Products\ Then after reboot it will work! (.I hope.) -- Best regards, Anders mailto:ame@swipnet.se
Hi Gordon, you don't have to move the cmf-1.1 directory to python/products! Just move the included directories like cmfcore, cmfcalendar, cmfdefault and cmftopic directly in the python/products directory! hope that helps, marc
