[Zope] 2.2b3 and INSTANCE_HOME problem

[Ron Bickers]

Using the instructions at http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/instancehome on
how to run multiple zopes with the same install, I semi-successfully have
two instances of 2.2b3 running.  However, when I run them, I get the
following traceback for XMLDocument (INSTANCE_HOME is /home/zopdev/zope in
this case):

2000-07-01T04:37:22 ERROR(200) Zope Couldn't install XMLDocument
Traceback (innermost last):
  File /usr/local/zope-2.2b3/lib/python/OFS/Application.py, line 467, in
install_products
    (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions)
    (Info: XMLDocument)
  File /home/zopedev/zope/Products/XMLDocument/__init__.py, line 102, in
initialize
  File /usr/local/zope-2.2b3/lib/python/App/ImageFile.py, line 110, in
__init__
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/usr/local/zope-2.2b3/lib/python/Products/XMLDocument/xml_element.gif'

It's not looking in the right place for the image file in XMLDocument. You
can see that if found the XMLDocument product in INSTANCE_HOME/Products (of
course, or it wouldn't have tried to install it in the first place).

I get other IOErrors when I try to add or manipulate objects where Zope is
looking in the wrong place for dtml files or whatever.  Everything works as
far as I can tell when browsing the site itself.

Is this a bug, or do I need to set some other variable, or what?
