When trying to install ZUBB product (I've tried versions ZDiscussions-0.6.0
and 0.7.1 with the same result) I seem to be able to install the product
correctly, but when attempting to create an instance of ZDiscussion Topic
(after entering ID and Title) I get the following error:

Site Error
An error was encountered while publishing this resource.

NameError

Sorry, a site error occurred.

Traceback (innermost last):

I would appreciate any suggestion to as what happens and how to fix it. I
run Zope 2.4.3 on win32 platform.
Many thanks for you help,
