I've installed Zope on a RH system, I get the password dialog (for 3 gerr... days) but nothing else, the system continues to ask for a correct username/password.
I have run the zpasswd.py script with "access" and "inituser" in both the /usr/lib/zope2.7 and it's "bin" directory, used clear passwords, and the default, changed permissions (on everything) to "zope" (Zope runs as user zope on my system). Restarted after each password change, run it with Galeon, Mozilla, Konqueror... From a remote machine and a local, searched the mailing list (Yahoo lists SUCKS, btw), Google, and the Zope site and read the logs.
The best message I have received from zope comes from Konqueror "Authentication Failed!"
Can anyone suggest how I might get Zope working?
Thank you. (This is SO FRUSTRATING!!!)
I can understand you. However, my only idea: you probably put "inituser/access" at a place where Zope does not look for them. Almost surely, there is documentation about your Zope installation. It should tell you what the initial user/password is and where the Zope "instance" is (that's where Zope looks for these files). If you do not find this documentation, fetch Zope's source distribution, untar, run "python wo_pcgi.py", note the initial user and password displayed at the end, "start". It's a matter of about 10-20 minutes...

Ups: what I said above was for Zope 2.6.x. Zope 2.7 is completely different... Dieter
