Probably because you are creating a new Schedule Zcatalog, whereas they were
using one already created in a prior version of Zope.

As far as I can tell the addIndex error results from changes to Catalog.py
made to support PluggableIndexes. I haven't been paying attention to this
development, so I have no clue what to do to make Xron compatible with
PluggableIndexes.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
