Well, sure enough, for some reason var was owned by root while the rest of the installation was owned by the user I set up. I chowned it all to said user, but it still doesn't work. I set the sticky bit for the var dir so that its permissions are: drwsrwsr-t Still no go. More ideas?
clarification: if you are running zope with a dedicated user (not root or nobody) the sticky bit should not be necessary. i run my instances with /var chmod 755. and once you get the perms and ownership as you want, you might need to restart zope (as the dedicated user). <--> george donnelly - http://zettai.net/ - "We Love Newbies" :) Zope Hosting - Dynamic Website Design - Search Engine Promotion Yahoo, AIM: zettainet - ICQ: 51907738 - e:george@zettai.net
