[Zope-PTK] PTK on Windows NT?

[Wolfgang Strobl]

Preface: I'm new to Zope, and I'm new to this list, so beare with me.

After successfully installing Zope (2.1.2-win32-x86) on a Windows 
2000 system, I found PTK (pre0.3) and decided to give it a try. 

After installing PTK by unpacking it into the directory where zope 
was installed, I proceeded as recommended in the PTK PTK.html 
"Installing PTK Software", by restarting Zope.

Now the docs say "When the PTK is correctly installed you will 
see Portal as a new kind of object in the add list for a Zope folder."

Sorry, there isn't. There is no new Object type named "Portal" in 
the drop down list.

Now sentence later it says "If you have installed the PKT software 
but don't see "Portal" listed, got to the Control panel in the Zope 
site, look at the Products folder, and see if the PTK software is 
listed as a broken product.

It isn't. It is listed as a working (nonbroken) project, there. 


Just to check whether installing a product works at all, I fetched 
another random product from zope.org (ZCalendar). This indeed 
_does_ add a new object (named ZCalendar) to the "add" dropdown 
list.

Then I tried the very same procedure on a Windows NT 4.0 
installation (Windows 2000 is still beta, after all), but in vain. Same 
result (product is visible, isn't brocken, but no "Portal" to add) there.

I'm stuck.
