Hi: This is weird. I stopped Zope (using the stop script provided) because I was going to test Tomcat (also on port 8080), but when I tried to restart zope again (as zoped, a user I've created for zope), it refused, and it's giving me this messages (by the way, I stopped Tomcat, so the port is free): ******************** Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/zope/z2.py", line 474, in ? zdaemon.run(sys.argv, os.path.join(CLIENT_HOME, Zpid)) File "/usr/local/zope/lib/python/zdaemon/Daemon.py", line 73, in run pf = open(pidfile, 'w+') IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/local/zope/var/var/zProcessManager.pid' [zoped@coco zope]$ ------ 2002-04-12T21:05:21 PANIC(300) z2 Startup exception Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/zope/z2.py, line 495, in ?

What's going on? Am I going crazy, is it because it's Friday?. To test Tomcat I added a few env vars, but nothing that should mess python (only java stuff) What am I missing, any idea will be appreciated, Regards, Jorge M. -- Jorge O.
