When I log into the zope ZMI with...

http://127.0.0.1/manage/

... i recieve the following error and traceback:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Error Type: TypeError
Error Value: ('len() of unsized object', , None)

Traceback (innermost last):

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The error and traceback appear in the frame that should display the
contents of the root folder.  The frame on the left hand side of the
page correctly displays all the directories.  If I select a folder, it
will display it's contents with no problems... just seems to be a
problem with the root directory.

Any help is appreciated,

Jon
