the old method, creating a text file called 'access' in your zope installation directory, still works. $ cd <my_zope_root> $ echo superuser:123 >access $ ./stop $ ./start now you can log in using superuser as name and 123 as password. the restarting is necessary so that zope reads the file. jens On 4/23/01 11:09, "Sebastian Luehnsdorf" <sfl@beehive.de> wrote:
hi!
i'm running into a problem replacing the top-level user folder of a 2.3 zope server with inituser.
when i delete the original user folder to replace it with another, i can not login as the emergency user anymore. i believe this is so because the emergency user is added from the inituser file to the top-level user folder on startup. but since there is no user folder anymore, i can not login anymore and am locked out for good.
what am i doing wrong? i know this was possible with pre 2.3 servers.
ciao, basti
p.s. wasn't there a howto or a tip somewhere on this topic?
