Yes. The instructions originally posted in this list last week no
longer apply. See http://www.zope.org/Products/PTK for instructions.

You wanted to do something like this--

$ cd ~
$ CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.zope.org:/cvs-repository
$ cvs login
$ cvs co ZopePTK
$ cd /my/zope/lib/python/Products
$ ln -s ~/ZopePTK/PTKBase PTKBase
$ ln -s ~/ZopePTK/PTKDemo PTKDemo
$ cd /my/zope/var
$ ln -s ~/ZopePTK/PTKDemo/DemoPortal.zexp DemoPortal.zexp

The original instructions assumed you only needed that one Product,
'ZopePTK/PTKBase'. Now, you need everything in ZopePTK so some of the
shortcuts the original instructions used would no longer apply.

Do you mean 'ln -s ./ZopePTK/PTKBase PTKBase' here? (Also for following
lines?) At least that's what I needed to do.

On my Linux box, I had to actually copy the DemoPortal.zexp to get Zope to
find it. A symbolic link wouldn't work. Hmmm.

Permissions. Either on the file, or one of the directories above.

Nope. '~' means 'my home directory'. At the beginning of the
example, I chdir to '~', and then checkout the package. Of course, it
doesn't have to be done in your home directory, it was just an example.

Okay, I'm missing something (on a Debian system):

# cd /usr/lib/zope/lib/pythong/Products
# cvs -z7 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.zope.org:/cvs-repository checkout ZopePTK
# ln -sf ZopePTK PTKBase .
# ln -sf ZopePTK PTKDemo .
...restart Zope...
...Go to Products folder...
...See PTKBase and PTKDemo products...
...Go to normal folder...
...No Portal items listed in ADD list...
# cp /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Products/ZopePTK/PTKDemo/DemoPortal.zexp /var/lib/zope/import/
...Go to Products folder...
...Import DemoPortal.zexp...
Error Value: No module named PTKDemo

What am I missing?

BTW: Same account data as last time.

Hi,

well, I am really no PTK hero, but I think you need to link/copy
PTKBase and PTKDemo directly beneath Products (no surrounding ZopePTK
folder!).
What you did is create links from PTKBase and PTKDemo both to ZopePTK,
but you need

ln -sf ZopePTK/PTKBase PTKBase
ln -sf ZopePTK/PTKDemo PTKDemo

and I would suggest you keep ZopePTK anywhere else like your Zope
root or even your source or download folder.

BTW, symlinking gave me strange problems anyway...

Ooops, I didd that -- my typo in copying the commands over to the
email. My actual install sequence and results were:

# cd /usr/lib/zope/lib/pythong/Products
# cvs -z7 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.zope.org:/cvs-repository checkout ZopePTK
# ln -sf ZopePTK/PTKBase .
# ln -sf ZopePTK/PTKDemo .
...restart Zope...
...Go to Products folder...

# cp /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Products/ZopePTK/PTKDemo/DemoPortal.zexp /var/lib/zope/import/
...Go to Products folder...
...Import DemoPortal.zexp...
Error Value: No module named PTKDemo

> BTW, symlinking gave me strange problems anyway...

I also tried physically mv'ing the PTK* directories immediately
under the Products tree to only get the same results.
