[Zope] zForum problem

Forgot to cc the list in the last reply. Line 142 of zForum.py says:

CookieCrumbler.manage_addCC('cookie_authentication')

and the error message is saying that it can't find manage_addCC in 
CookieCrumbler (I have taken out the rest of the Error log from this 
reply because it contained a plain text database connection string).

Check that your Add dropdown list has Cookie Crumbler (Standalone) in 
its list and that the Zope user has read/write access to the 
CookieCrumbler and zForum folders.

I have a test zForum installed and it just worked! If I create another 
with a dud database connection string I get a database error when trying 
to View (the installation appeared to work OK).
