I've had problems getting CMFWiki to work:

Shortly after posting the above I got three quick and helpful
responses, detailing several possible errors (thanks, fellows).
Turned out that of the three, I had made two.

Fixing those wasn't enough.  I had also created two users with the
same name ('martin') - one at the top level and one in the CMF
folder.  On my home system I use for fiddling, I built a new Zope,
avoided the repeated user name, and CMFWiki worked fine.  (It's really
slick having the changes reported, etc.) On the system here at work
I'm trying to avoid building a new Zope - cause of the work I've
already done, and so I'm trying to fix the duplicate name issue in
place, which I'm taking slowly so I don't do too much damage.

Thanks again for all the help.
