       Starting zope, instances: default                                    done

   Open the Zope start page (http://localhost:8080/) in a web browser. If you see a page named Zope Quick Start your Zope server is up and running.

   Log in into Zope by opening the URL http://localhost:8080/manage in your browser and entering these data.

10. Create a Plone instance: in the main frame you are given the opportunity to add objects, Select type to add... being preselected. Choose Plone site from this list. In the next form you have to fill in an Id like myplonesite or whatever you prefer. Press the Add Plone Site button afterwards. From now on you can reach your Plone site via the URL http://localhost:8080/myplonesite. You can open this URL in a new browser window and login with the aforementioned superuser/123 combination.
