that's normal if you run in debug mode (check your start script to see if it passes -D to z2.py).
It does one of two things-either just says "Starting Zope..." and never moves from that, or it mentions how I have a deprecated version of something (I can't remember what right now and it hasn't happened lately).
that's the old "regex is deprecated" warning. It's just python warning you that the regex module is going away sometime in the future, maybe python 2.3, I forget. Nothing to worry about at all. It will only become an issue if you try to run zope with a version of python that A) isn't officially supported by zope, and B) doesn't exist yet anyway.
The second issue is that when I actually hit the Zope page in the web browser,
... which means zope is running so none of the above matters .
I don't really get what we normally would see. What I get is this: (snip) (Object: navigation) Document Template Parse Error: (see above)
That's just what it says, there's a syntax error in a DTML page, either the one you're viewing or another one that it calls. What is "navigation"? Did you create something called "navigation"? If it's happening on the "Welcome to Zope" page, you either hosed your installation somehow, or (more likely) changed index_html or standard_html_header/footer in your root folder. Without more info, I'd guess you added something like <dtml-var navigation> in your standard_html_header, and created a DTML doc or method called navigation, and made an error in that.
Finally, my zope-debug.log file shows this: (snip)
