Sorry you had a bad first experience.

You need to point your browser to http://127.0.0.1/@@login.html when
using the debug.ini -- this is already documented, but needs a better
place.

The method is actually called (try debug print to stdout).
But the output hangs.

I have found this in zope.publisher changelog -- 3.5.3 (2008-06-20):

Bugs fixed:
    * It turns out that some Web servers (Paste for example) do not send
the EOF character after the data has been transmitted and the read() of
the cached stream simply hangs if no expected content length has been
specified.

Looks like this is our problem. There is also a thread in zope3-users
mailinglist:
http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope3-users/2008-October/008255.html

I changed the zope.publisher version from 3.4.6 to the latest (3.5.6)
for my example project, but the problem still exists.

Regards
Michael
