How to resolve ConfigurationError error 'Unknown directive' in Plone?

I created new plone site after that I created new product using the following command

 ../bin/zopeskel plone_basic dummy.work

I created browser folder under ../dummy.work/src/dummy/work .then I configured the browser folder in configure.zcml file as like below.

<configure
    xmlns="http://namespaces.zope.org/zope"
    xmlns:five="http://namespaces.zope.org/five"
    xmlns:i18n="http://namespaces.zope.org/i18n"
    xmlns:browser="http://namespaces.zope.org/browser"
    xmlns:plone="http://namespaces.plone.org/plone"
    xmlns:zcml="http://namespaces.zope.org/zcml"
    xmlns:genericsetup="http://namespaces.zope.org/genericsetup"
    i18n_domain="dummy.work">

    <five:registerPackage package="." initialize=".initialize" />
    <plone:static
        directory="browser"
        type="work"
        name="dummy.work"
        />

    <genericsetup:registerProfile
        name="default"
        title="dummy.work"
        directory="profiles/default"
        description="Installs the dummy.work package"
        provides="Products.GenericSetup.interfaces.EXTENSION"
        />
    <include package=".browser" />
</configure>

To use the plone:static directive you must include the meta.zcml.

It's documented in the package documentation at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/plone.resource/

You must do <include package="plone.resource" file="meta.zcml"/> before you can use the plone:static directive.

So: add the line <include package="plone.resource" file="meta.zcml"/> before the usage of plone:static.
