Hi, I am running a custom RHAS kernel on which I installed zope from the tarball as per instructions. The installation went smoothly and then I modified the start script to be the following: #! /bin/sh export INSTANCE_HOME=/var/local/zope export ZSYSLOG="/dev/log" cd $INSTANCE_HOME /usr/bin/env /usr/bin/python2.1 \ $INSTANCE_HOME/z2.py \ -D \ -z /var/local/zope \ -u zope \ -X \ -a 192.168.10.173 \ -P 192.168.10.173:8000 \ -f - \ -p - \ -m - \ -M /var/log/zope/detailed.log \ -l /var/log/zope/zserver.log \ >> /var/log/zope/zserver.log \ 2>&1 When I do a ./start &, it starts up the process since I can see it when I do a ps -ax, however there are no messages on the screen, even though I am running in debug mode. But that's still ok. I can't seem to hit the server on that port at all. Also another peculiar thing came up. to check whether it was up or not I ran a nmap - nmap -vv -sS 192.168.10.173 and port 8080 didnt show up. So I ran nmap -vv -sS -p 1-65535 192.168.10.173 and suddenly I got ports all over the place mostly in the 30000 - 55000 range. Where did these come from?? Where did good old 8080 go?? Anybody else experience something like this?? I am absolutely lost as to what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
