You may look at "PUTFactory" -- HowTo on Zope.org...

The usual way (there are a few exceptions, mainly very old
products) to call constructors is

    <ObjectManager>.manage_addProduct[<yourProduct>].<contructor>(<arguments>)

In URL form (this is what you need for XMLRFC), this is

    <URLToObjectManager>/manage_addProduct/<yourProduct>

    There, you call "<contructor>(<arguments>)".

But, you do not tell us about the kind of problems....
