All,

When I attempt to import DemoPortal.zexp, I get the following error:

Error Type: ImportError
Error Value: No module named ZopeOrg.PortalContent

Traceback (innermost last):
File /usr/local/src/Zope-2.1.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line

There appear to be non-ASCII characters within the parentheses following
"Info:".

I'm wondering if this has something to do with an old ZopeOrg product that
is left over from my previous attempt at installing the packaged version
of PTK. I cannot delete this package however. This is the error I get:

Error Type: SystemError
Error Value: Failed to import class _ZClass_for_ZopeOrgPortalBase from

Any suggestions?

Quite probably. I had the same problem when trying to convert a
ZClass to use a class I had moved to a different package. If the old
package was visible, it would always use that one regardless of which I
had selected in the ZClass add form. I had no end of headaches getting it
to behave.

The easiest thing to do (depending on your circumstances) is to start
with a fresh database. You can just delete/rename your var/Data.fs file,
and it will generate a virgin database. Let me know if that's not a
feasable solution, I'll see if I can figure out how to trick it.

Mike.

Okay, I rebuilt the database from scratch, which was not a big deal since
this is running on a test Zope instance.

I imported the DemoPortal and began to create a portal in my top-level
folder. On step 3 of the wizard, after clicking "Finish," I get the
following error:

Error Type: TypeError
Error Value: not enough arguments; expected 6, got 3

I'm getting closer, a little at a time. :-)

Hmm. In Portal.py (rev 1.31), this is the line:

catalog.manage_addIndex('review_state', 'FieldIndex')

This is the first line that an index is added. Some people reported
that ZCatalog doesn't even have a manage_addIndex method in their version,
so I have changed this to add indexes and columns differently. The change
was made yesterday sometime. I can't imagine why it would be expecting 6
parameters in any case.

Try updating to the latest version (run 'cvs up' in each of PTKBase
and PTKDemo) and trying again. Let me know!

Thanks!
Mike.

I see the same problem:

* I just fetched the whole PTK module via 'cvs -d ... co ZopePTK'.

* I linked PTKBase and PTKDemo into my Products tree via 'ln -s'
and restarted -- both show up fine in the Control Panel.

* I linked DemoPortal.zexp into the /import directory, and imported it;
the Help class and the PortalWizard showed up borken.

* I restarted Zope -- the PortalWizard class is now not broken. I
switched to the main tree and tried to create a Portal. I filled out the
three forms, hit the Finish button (why not the Swedish button? or the
Latt button? :) and got the same "expected 6, got 3" TypeError reported
by Jim Cain.

Running Zope 2.1.3 on a RH5.2 Linux box.

manage_addIndex() in my version of ZCatalog.py looks like::

def manage_addIndex(self, name, type, REQUEST, RESPONSE, URL1):

The method just calls 'RESPONSE.redirect()' blindly, without checking that
anything reasonable was passed (ugh!). Which version of Zope are you testing
with?

No good :( -- see my other post. Here is a patch which fixes it:

I finally got a chance to do this, and I was able to create a portal with
no problems. Now if I can just find some time to play with it. :-)
