Robert, Start the system as the 'zope' user (instead of root) and try this. Zope's "effective user" support is not really up to snuff at this point. I hope to be able to fix this soon. - C ----- Original Message ----- From: "Boyd, Robert, CTR, OSD-PA&E" <Robert.H.Boyd@osd.mil> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Friday, November 01, 2002 11:17 AMSubject: [Zope] 2.6.0 errors
Classification: UNCLASSIFIED
Hi,
I'm trying out Zope 2.6.0 on Solaris, using the binary distro. I've been using 2.5.1 successfully. I set up 2.6.0 to start as root, then switch to user 'zope'. I can start Zope, but when I try to add the tutorial, I get this error: Traceback (innermost last): Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 98, in publish Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object Module Products.ZopeTutorial.TutorialTopic, line 163, in addTutorial Bad Request: The ZGadflyDA product must be installed!
I look in Products and see ZGadflyDA is installed, not broken. So I try to add a ZGadfly connection and get: Traceback (innermost last): Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 98, in publish Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object Module Products.ZGadflyDA, line 59, in manage_addZGadflyConnectionForm Module App.special_dtml, line 61, in __call__ Module DocumentTemplate.DT_String, line 474, in __call__ Module Products.ZGadflyDA.db, line 32, in manage_DataSources Gadfly Error: The Zope Gadfly Database Adapter requires the existence of the directory, <code>/usr/local/zope/2.6.0/var/gadfly</code>. An error occurred while trying to create this directory.
So is this merely a permissions problem? I followed the instructions: var owned by root, then chmod 1775 to set the sticky bit (chmod o+t didn't work in Solaris). Thus I wind up with var having permissions of drwxrwxr-t.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Rob
