The tutorial explains how to set up projects and how to expand to full-source projects. I wonder why you downloaded the zip.

I ran into the same problem an found the solution in the forum. Only a few days later, I've found it in the tutorial, too. http://appfuse.org/display/APF/AppFuse+QuickStart Cens wrote: > > 1) it puts together for you a number of frameworks in a modular way.
