Just starting to learn Zope. Running Mandrake 6.1 on AMD K6.
Grabbed Zope 2.1.4 i386 .tgz. Unpacked in /usr/share/zope-2.1.4 .
./install -u Super_Manager_username --> ok, except, thanks to Zope List archives, figured out I had to chown nobody. .../var and rerun ./install, otherwise it aborted trying to write the Z2.pid file. (Some one should report that as a bug, that ./install gets the .../var ownership wrong.)
-u is for the unix user you want Zope to run as, not to set the Zope superuser username. This probably explains the rest of your problems being due to permissions. -Michel
