Hello.

I am currently using Zope with the following configuration:

Zope Version 2.1.0 (latest www.zope.org tarball)
Linux 2.1.10
ZServer

I have created some folders and uploaded some files to this one. After that I
clicked on the file icon and after that I tried to change security parameters
for that file.
After submitting ANY change I get the following:


Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. 

        Error Type: AttributeError
        Error Value: tag

Traceback (innermost last):

171, in setRoles
AttributeError: (see above)
[snip]

a) What does that mean?
b) Have I done something wrong?

I would like to point out that this error does even occur when I just push the
"change" button without changing anything!

Thanks for your help,

regards,

Ingo.
