Ok, I tried to setup the plumi "sandbox" again last night on the
borderlands hacklab server, but the plumi install is trickier than i
thought.
i have zope instaled and running, and I can go to ourserver:8080/manager
and see the nice three frame interface, which I'm assuming is the ZMI,
but I don't see the "quick product install" part where I can install the
plumi products. also, from the plumi documentation, it says to pick 3
products, atvideo, plumiskin and pressroom but i only see pumiskin, and
i just downloaded the latest plumi, unziped it and added its dir to the
plone.conf and restarted plone.
can someome give me some direction here for setting up plumi?
when i go into the manager interface and try to pick a plone page, i
jsut get a page of code starting with
('No traversable adapter found', {u'content': [('version', '1.6'),
('mode', 'html'), ('setPosition', (99, 16)), ('setSourceFile',
i gather that the plone install isn't quite complete yet. i guess i'll
start poring over the plone manual.
thanks!
