So... What next?

Hi!

I'm completely new to Plone.  I've set up Joomla, SMF,
Drupal and Mediawiki
in the past, but Plone seems to be a bit different.  I'm
wondering if this
may be tripping me up.

I used the Unified Linux Installer to install Plone.  It
installed
everything and referred me to a file for my admin account,
password and a
few other pieces of information.  I checked out the file,
looked over
everything and started the cluster.

However... What now?

I've read the tutorials, which seem to be either for an
older version or a
different way of installing, I'm not really able to make
heads or tails of
it.  The gist of what I get from them is I should be able to
go to:

http://localhost:8080/ma
nage

and set things up.  I tried that and nothing seemed to
happen.  I read the
zope config and log files.  It seems that something may be
running on port
8100, so I tried:

http://localhost:8100/ma
nage

and the browser just sits there.

Any suggestions as to what I may be doing wrong?

Correct.

Don't do that!  That is
the ZEO (server) portion of the cluster; it
will not answer to your browser  You
should connect to the Zope 
(client) running on 8080 as you mention above.

I don't remember where the Unified Installer puts
everything, 
but try to find zopectl (usually /opt/instance/bin/zopectl,
or something like 
that) and run `zopectl fg` to see if everything starts
ok...
Also double check that the configured http-server port is
really 8080 
in zope.conf (/opt/instance/etc/zope.conf) ...

Hi,

could you provide a bit more detail about the behaviour of
your setup?
Does anything appear when you open http://localhost:8080/ma
nage ? Is it 
timing out at some point, or is no service running? Are you
sure that 
Zope is running?
