[Zope] Getting an external method to work

[Ben Derstine]

Hello,
I'm completely new to Zope and I'm trying to understand how external methods
work.  From the documentation it seems like it should be very simple but yet
I can't make it work.  Here is what I have done:

1. Created a folder in the Zope directory called Extensions.
2. Created a python script:

def Testzope():
	"Testing zope"
	return 'Does this work?'

3.Named the script testzope.py and placed it in the Extensions folder.
4. I went to the zope management interface and added a folder called
testfolder.
5. Within the testfolder I added an External method with ID testingzope,
function name Testzope, and module file testzope (without the suffix). 
6. When I hit Try It within the management interface it works correctly. 
7. When I try to access it from outside the interface I consistently get
"Document not found."
8. Here is how I try to access it:
localhost:9673/testfolder/testzope/Testzope
9. Anything else I add (DHTML docs) seems to work fine and show up
externally. 


Any ideas?
