hi, i'm pretty sure i followed the install instructions from INSTALL.txt...


Installing NeoBoard

    o First, make sure you installed NeoPortal Library

-Did this 

        o Untar the package to YOUR_ZOPE_HOME/lib/python/Products

-I installed it in my INSTANCE_HOME

        o The package directory should be called 'NeoBoard':
YOUR_ZOPE_HOME/lib/python/Products/NeoBoard

I changed the id of the directory to NeoBoard. The Product loads fine and is
not broken.

        o Restart Zope.

        o Zope's ZMI should be displaying the following two products:

                - NeoBoard

                - NeoBoard Skin Folder

        o Add 'NeoBoard Skin Folder' first.

        o Add 'NeoBoard'. 'NeoBoard Skin Folder' must be reachable by
'NeoBoard'.

        o Done.

Right got all that

Installing CMFNeoBoard in CMF or Plone site

    o Add an external method with the following attributes:

        - Id : doesn't matter (neoboard_installer, for example)

        - Title: doesn't matter either

        - Module Name: NeoBoard.Install (note it's NeoBoard not CMFNeoBoard)

        - Function Name: install

    o Click on the 'Test' tab of the added external method

Did this and it added the skin and content Type, actions, etc.


    Note that CMFNeoBoard is addable either thru ZMI or CMF/Plone interface.

I added the CMfNeoBoard instance in question through the CMF interface.

Is there something I missed?

OK, I'm adding NeoBoard to a fresh, stock CMF site on the same Zope
instance.

Ran External Method


Registered CMFNeoBoard with the types tool...
Added 'neoboard_skins' directory views to portal_skins
Added NeoBoard Skins to Basic skins
Added NeoBoard Skins to No CSS skins
Added NeoBoard Skins to Nouvelle skins
Added NeoBoard article actions to the actions tool


adding the CMFNeoBoard and i get the same error

Error Type: KeyError
Error Value: is_cmf


Will manually setting the property via the ZMI on the root of the Neoboard
instance fix this? What should it be set to? What type of property should it
be?
