[Zope] Version Paradox

[Baker, Dennis [sjmr]]

No luck,  Maybe I'm describing my problem wrong,  When I go to manage Zope
The header at the top says "
   Folder at / * (/Developement%20Site) 
               ^ (This is the version Symbol)

It doesn't Say that I am working in a version otherwise.  Then if I attempt
to create a new version I get the following error:

  Error Type: VersionLockError
  Error Value: ("'\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\002'",
'/Developement%20Site')

I can create a version in a subfolder,  and subfolders don't have the
"Folder at" stuff all messed up.  Unfortunately this is my production server
too,  not my testing server.

I believe that versions are based on cookies and that removing the culprit
will unlock your paradox
