[Boa Constr] Problem installing zoa object

[Laurence R. <lau...@lr...>]

Hi,

I've just installed boa from cvs and am having problems connecting to a 
zope server. When I click on my zope server in explorer I get a message 
asking me if I want to install zoa as it is not found at the root of my 
zope tree. I click yes and get an the following error:

bci.Unauthorized: bobo exception (File: 
usr/lib/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/HTTPResponse.py Line: 533)
401 Unauthorized for http://www.su.umist.ac.uk:9673///manage_addFolder

(Traceback at bottom of post)

It would seem that it can't authorize with my zope server, but I've 
checked and double checked the username and password in my 
Explorer.msw.cfg and it is correct. here is the relevant part (password 
obscured ;-):

zope = {'www.su':
          {'host': 'www.su.umist.ac.uk',
           'httpport': 9673,
           'ftpport': 8021,
           'username': 'admin',
           'passwd': '****',
           'path': '/',
           'name': '',
           'localpath': ''} }

No sign of any folders appearing in the ZMI after this happens.

On the zope server I run:
  Zope Version
(Zope 2.5.1 (source release, python 2.1, linux2), python 2.1.3, linux2)
Python Version
2.1.3 (#1, Sep 7 2002, 15:29:56) [GCC 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)]

On my (win2000) machine I run:
python.org installer installed python 2.2.2
CVS (from today) Boa 0.1.5

I've probably missed something obvious, but I'm completely stuck - so 
all help greatfully recieved!

Laurence

P.S. Boa looks great from the little of it I have seen so far - keep up 
the good work!

P.P.S here's the traceback:
