The traceback shows you:

  You are calling "manage_addLocalFS".
  It calls "manage_main" from "App.FactoryDispatcher:103".
  There, you get a "TypeError" exception.

I remember (--> mailing list archive) that this is a bug in
"manage_addLocalFS". It passes the optional argument "REQUEST"
(initialized as "None") to "manage_main" which requires that it is
a (fairly) true request object.

Pass "REQUEST" explicitely.
