I am trying to run the latest version of Zope (2.2.1 beta) on a Redhat 6.2 Linux system. When I run the ./start script it gets to the Zope Server Monitor and sits there. It never returns back to the bash prompt. I can get to Zope's management interface from a browser so Zope *is* running. However if I close that terminal window, Zope stops. Python 1.5.2_13 is the version installed by Redhat. Which is the correct version of Python, last I checked. Also, if I run a startup script to start Zope during the boot process, it hangs the boot process. Any suggestions?
Because the start script runs Zope in Debug mode by default (-D), it does not background. Either run ./start & or remove the -D from the start script. Personally, i have added the following line to the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local : /bin/su -l zope --command=/usr/local/zope/start & I have added a user called zope, and 'chown'ed all the zope files to user zope group zope. Alternatively, you CAN run zope from inittab by adding: zo:234:respawn:/bin/su zope -c /usr/local/zope/start >/dev/msglog2 <>/dev/msglog </dev/console This will mean that if, for some bizarre reason, zope crashes (or is killed), it will restart.
