The "manage_addCMFSite" (you find it in "CMFDefault/Portal.py")
creates a CMFSite instance and then redirects to
"finish_portal_contruction" for a welcome message (you
find it in "zpt_control/finish_portal_construction.pt".
It is not a good sign that this redirect fails.
To check your site, visit:
<http://10.15.20.73:8080/Portals/test>
If this fails enter your CMFSite via the Zope Management Interface
and look around. Look especially in "portal_skins" that
the folder "zpt_control" is not empty.
