It would be possible to modify the plonectl script in order to make it run without using the zdaemon? Similar to way that the runzope used to work. I am using the Plone unified installer, it doesn't comes with the runzope script. Thanks, Cesar 2009/3/29 Dieter Maurer <dieter@handshake.de>

Does Zope requires that a "root" user should exist on system in order to run properly? I am asking this because when I try to run Zope as a daemon I got this:
$ ./plonectl start instance: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Unlinking stale socket /cygdrive/c/Cygwin/home/ccanassa/Plone/zinstance/var/instance/zopectlsock; sleep 1
No handlers could be found for logger "root" . Unlinking stale socket /cygdrive/c/Cygwin/home/ccanassa/Plone/zinstance/var/instance/zopectlsock; sleep 1 . Unlinking stale socket
The continued "Unlinking stale socket" means that your "zdaemon" is dieing.
"zdaemon" is not supposed to work under Windows.
I am unsure whether this also includes "Cygwin on Windows". Your observation may indicate that it actually does....
Try to configure logging for your "zdaemon" and look into its logfile. If this does not reveal hints, modify the "zdaemon" code to ensure that problems are logged to a file you know.
