<P align=left>Hi all,</P>
<P align=left>I'm learning about CMS. I have installed Zope-2.7.4, Python-2.3 and Plone-2.0.5 and now i'm reading about Plone. But when i tried the MySite example, i could not run it. I don't know how to install it (put it in what folder ?) to make it run. I think the installation guide is too short and so it is hard for me to understand. Here it is:</P>
<P align=left>"<EM>To install the product, copy, move, or link the three subfolders </EM></FONT><EM><FONT size=2>MySite </FONT><FONT size=2>, </FONT><FONT size=2>FlexibleTopic </FONT><FONT size=2>, and </FONT><FONT size=2>ATExtensions </FONT><FONT size=2>to your Zope's product folder and restart the server. Then use the quick installer to add </FONT><FONT size=2>MySite </FONT><FONT size=2>to a test-and-throw-away Plone instance. The product takes care to install all other ones it depends on (like Archetypes) if necessary and it also puts an </FONT><FONT size=2>events </FONT></EM><FONT size=2><EM>topic in your site as you will notice.</EM></P>
<P align=left><EM>You can get the accompayning product from http://www.neuroinf.de/LabTools/MySite. The location of your </EM></FONT><EM><FONT size=2>Products </FONT><FONT size=2>folder depends on your local installation. In general, it is considered best practice to use the </FONT><FONT size=2>Products </FONT><FONT size=2>subfolder within </FONT><FONT size=2>INSTANCE_HOME </FONT><FONT size=2>but there is also one in the </FONT><FONT size=2>SOFTWARE_HOME </FONT><FONT size=2>directory. If you don't know where these folders are on your server, use the ZMI and go to the </FONT><FONT size=2>Control_Panel </FONT><FONT size=2>in the Zope root. There, you will find these and other settings specific to your local server. When you've installed Plone on Windows using the installer, the </FONT><FONT size=2>Products </FONT><FONT size=2>folder is: </FONT><FONT size=2><Plone 2 folder>/Data/Products"</FONT></EM></P>
<P align=left><FONT size=2>So if somebody tell me how to install it in more detail to make it run properly. Here are my installation folders:</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT size=2>Zope:</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT size=2>C:\Program Files\Zope</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT size=2>C:\Zope-Instance</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT size=2>Plone:</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT size=2>C:\Program Files\Plone 2</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT size=2>And could you teach me how do i begin learning about Zope CMF: What it is ?, what does it do ?, and what is the core of it ?</FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT size=2>Thank you very much.</FONT></P>
