Your installation is obviously broken. :)

Try to follow the steps at 
http://plone.org/documentation/how-to/setup-from-source.

Then start in debug mode and post the output here if there are errors. 
Without more information, I doubt anyone will be able to help you.

Expression in Workflow

My question is about DCWorkflow.

I want to permit a transition for a group of people.

My condition is, they can have this transition if they are in a certain
portal tab (folder).

What is the expression that I can use in the tranistion properties?

Can you help me?

I think you'll need something like openID. plone 3.0 will include
support for it (authenticating to an openID source), but I'm not sure
if it also allows plone to function as an openID server.

Textindexng3

Yep, definitively textindexng3. Be sure to read the install
documentation, as 10% of the messages on plone.users seem to be from
users who don't read textindexng3's install documentation (after which
you'll rightfully get growled at by Andreas Jung).

Please check your file permissions - what user you're trying to run zope 
as and what read permissions they have in the Products folders.

Also make sure zope is in debug mode. Search for "debug" in zope.conf to 
switch it on. If you do that, then when Zope starts up it will crash out 
with useful messages if something is wrong.

Although you can also look in the event.log, the useful thing about 
debug mode is you can be sure about where exactly it went wrong.

I want to turn off the possibility of people registering for accounts at my plone site.

root of plone in zmi -> 
security tab -> turn off "Add portal member" for Anonymous

... this advice did not work... all the checkboxes were 
unchecked in the ZMI.

"Acquire permission settings" was checked, but none of the 
boxes for Manager, Owner, Anonymous, etc were checked.

How can I disable logins for the general public?

Untick the acquire box and tick the manager box, and make sure you save.

Hmmm, "acquire permission settings" should be unchecked, no?
