I have installed Zope using the rpm file (2.6.1-132) that ships with SuSE 9.0 onto my machine. When attempting to access http://localhost:8080/manage, all attempts are refused. Using zpasswd.py to create (and/or re-create) a superuser with a password, all attempts are still refused.
Be sure that you are using zpasswd properly and that the results are going somewhere they will be seen. Read the doc/SECURITY.txt file in your Zope installation, then find and read the "Deian setup" thread from this list.
There is also a "Zope in SuSE 9.0" thread that reports and solves this exact problem.
Did a Google search for this thread (Zope in SuSE 9.0). Found answer, THANKS.
User and Security chapter of the zopebook indicates in "$ cd (... where your ZOPE_HOME is... )". I am confused, does zope create a zope home directory under /home? Why can I not change my superuser password to something I know?
ZOPE_HOME is where your Zope is installed. I will presume that the book mentions that somewhere but you missed it.
In my case, I believe this means that my ZOPE_HOME is /opt/zope.
When install chapter discusses the compile under a tar install, it indicates that a superuser password is provided and the user (myself) needs to write this down to get into zope. If I use the SuSE provided rpm file, how do I find out the password?
I do not know. The package should provide that knowledge somewhere. Possibly a README.SuSE file, or something. It is remiss if it does not.
Please help!
Zope in Linux distro packages is always a nightmare. I'm not sure why. But Zope "from source" is not hard.
