[Zope3-Users] Zope 3.3.0 creating DTML page TypeError: readline() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)

zope3-users:

I am a newbie running Zope 3.3.0 on FreeBSD 6.2.  I'm trying to create a "hello,
world!" home page.  When I browse to my Zope instance, log in using the
administrator account, drill down to [Top] -> ++etc++site -> default, choose DTML
Page, enter the magic words in the text area, and click Add, my browser indicates
error 500 and z3.log says:

    TypeError: readline() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)


I'm just fumbling around with Zope, and don't know if I'm using the software
wrong or if this is a bug in Zope (or elsewhere).


I guess the meta-question is: "what's the best way to learn Zope?".  STFW, I
can't seem to find any Zope 3 tutorials, and the most recent online edition of
"The Zope Book" seems to cover version 2.6.  Should I attempt to read/follow that
version of the book using Zope 3 and "discover" the differences, or would I be
better off installing Zope 2.6?


TIA,

David
