[Zope] manage_users - Error in acl_users

[JP Glutting]

Hi,

I have a DTML page that adds users to a folder, (trying to) give them only 
a specific, limited role. The code in question looks like this. I know it is 
overkill, but it is more clear this way. (inId passes the folder to give 
access to):

<!--#call "REQUEST.set('name', name)"-->
<!--#call "REQUEST.set('password', password)"-->
<!--#call "REQUEST.set('confirm', confirm)"-->
<!--#call "REQUEST.set('roles', 'Student')"-->
<!--#call "REQUEST.set('domains', '')"-->
<!--#call "_.getitem(_['inID']).acl_users.manage_users(submit='Add',
REQUEST=REQUEST)"-->

When the 'roles' variable is set to '', it works fine, but there are no roles 
for the user (obviously). When I set a role, like in this code, it adds the 
user, but when I go to the acl_users folder to look at the user details, I get 
an error, with this traceback:


Sorry, an error occurred.<p>

Has anyone seen this, and is there something I can do to 
make this work?

I am also wondering if this is not related to a problem the Brian Hooper posted 
on Jan 26, where he had trouble changing data for users. Brian, could you see 
at the details of the acl_users entries from the /manage screen?


Thanks,

JP
