Well. I don't agree with that statement. :)


As always, there's a trade-off. It depends what you want/need. There  
is no right or wrong here, the only wrong thing is to have some kind  
of "my CMS is  than yours" discussion... :-P


I certainly hame my preference, so does Charlie, and so do you.

You only need to restart Zope.

Yeah, there should be CMF stuff there.

First start Zope in debug mode. That way it will complain if it fails
to load a product.
Secondly, you probably want to look at Plone instead. CMF is a
framework for writing content management systems. Plone is a system
using CMF. But where CMF is just a framework needs development before
it gets useful, Plone is useful out of the box.

[Zope-CMF] CMF Installation

2007-11-15 Thread Xavier Balling
I am new to both Zope and CMF. I think I have followed to the letter the
installation directions but CMF is not loading properly.

I loaded a completly new instance.  I am running Zope on Windows here is all
the installation information from the control panel.

   Zope Version
 (Zope 2.10.5-final, python 2.4.4, win32)

Python Version

 2.4.4 (#71, Oct 18 2006, 08:34:43) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]

  System Platform

 win32

  SOFTWARE_HOME

 C:\Zope\2.10.5\Zope\lib\python

  ZOPE_HOME

 C:\Zope\2.10.5\Zope

  INSTANCE_HOME

 C:\Zope\Instance\2.10.5

  CLIENT_HOME

  Network Services

  Process Id

  Running For

 7 min 30 sec

Next I unzipped the CMF-2.1.0.zip to the C:\Zope\Instance\2.10.5\Products
directory.  I completly restarted my machine, opened Zope, looked in the
Products folder and I do not recognize any CMF objects, nor in the Add menu
are there any CMF objects.  What should be here? How do I go about
troubleshooting this problem and getting CMF installed properly?

When you unzip the CMF archive you get a folder which contains several  
other folders (CMFCore, CMFDefault...). Those folders inside the CMF  
folder must be moved into your Products directory. This is explained  
in INSTALL.txt Step 2.

Let him get started with CMF first! You don't need to do much with it  
to use it as a CMS and for many sites it might be preferable.

Last I checked (well before 1.5.1) CMF packaged all its constituent 
products in a containing directory:


CMF
  CMFCore
  CMFDefault
  etc.

You must place these in your Products/ directory. (And running an 
instance would be better, btw.)


I would bet that this is explained in the README. Did you bother to read it?
