This seems to be no ones area of expertise. Did I pick
a weird way to debug or something?

Here is the traceback from my root object request:

>>> ZPublisher.Zope('')
Status: 200 OK
X-Powered-By: Zope (www.zope.org), Python
(www.python.org)
Content-Length: 0

I have tried this on 2 separate Zope installs and both
fail to return the "Zope Quick Start" page. So, it
looks like there is a fundamental flaw in how my
requests are being processed. I can't believe that no
one has ever run into this problem before?
Suggestions?

Thanks for the suggestion but that is the page that
got me started down this highway of confusion!

Thanks for the help,
