[Zope] Zope installation woes

[KE Liew]

no offense, but you should really listen to those advice given.

it'll take you lesser time to get a working web application than to do
it "on the job" as you said. i hope you do realise that on-the-job
could also mean researching and studying the work at hand before
actually being more productive.

you didn't read the docs properly to get zope running, IMHO. if you
wanna get zope+cmf running well and to what you want, start reading
and learn.
