Hi all,

Recently set up my first IIS server. Installed ActivePerl and Python.
Installed latest Zope beta. Restarted and looked good to go. Got the
"Welcome to Zope" page at: http://xanadu.unk.edu:8080/

Click on the "QuickStart" link. Good.
Click on any tree symbol "+". Good.
Click on any next level down tree symbol: Zope Error:
Error Type: TypeError
Error Value: len() of unsized object

Source says (Greek to me, at this point):

Do I have something misconfigured, or is Quickstart broken with latest
beta?
