These are harmless, you can ignore them.

This is fatal.

It cannot find a file with the given name.

   Indeed, the name is strange. Almost surely, it should not look for
   "*.pt.zpt". Check the folder. I expect, you will find
   a "standard_template.zpt".

   If this is correct, line 721 of "OFS/Application.py" is wrong.
   Remove the ".pt" suffix.

An alternative might be to give Zope an initial "Data.fs".
Usually, it comes as "Data.fs.in" and is copied to "Data.fs"
during installation. Do not know why this was not the case
for your setup.
