I have installed zope as root as setup an instance of zope using a different user.
I am trying to setup zope so that it will start automatically when the server is rebooted. I have created a symlink in rc.d to zopectl however this doesnt seem to work.
This tries to start zope as the user root, not as that different user. I do think you want to start it as that other user. The following article may help you: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/372 Basically, login as that user and add a crontab entry with 'crontab -e' that contains something like this: @reboot /home/someuser/zopeinstance/bin/zopectl start Then test it of course. :) -- Maurits van Rees | http://maurits.vanrees.org/ [NL] Work | http://zestsoftware.nl/ GnuPG key | http://maurits.vanrees.org/var/gpgkey.asc "Do only what only you can do." --- Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
