Hello,
following doc/INSTALL.txt (the quick start) the first command finishes with "Done." which seems to hint at success. However, the INSTALL description says that I will be given a user name and password. This is not the case, nor can I find any point where the procedure is unhappy.
I have had the same anomaly on Mandrake 6.0. The installation is successful the install script just fails to generate a password. I fixed that by using the zpasswd.py script. The following output shows how I used it. hallam$ cd /usr/local/zope hallam$ export PYTHONHOME=/usr/local/zope hallam$ bin/python zpasswd.py ~/access Username: mark Password: mark Verify password: mark Please choose a format from: SHA - SHA-1 hashed password CRYPT - UNIX-style crypt password CLEARTEXT - no protection. Encoding: SHA Domain restrictions: Just hit enter when asked for domain restrictions. That will create a login id with manager permissions and no domain restrictions. Good luck!
Bravely executing the second command ( ./start ) results in a somehow running zope which of course I can not log in. Furthermore, ./start does not return.
./start directly executes the Zope command in the foreground, so ./start doesn't return until Zope is killed. Does anyone else know how to work around this? -- martinja@ice-works.com All opinions expressed are my own and not necessarily those of my employer unless otherwise noted.
