Thanks, Shane. That fixes the problem of Zope not starting, and better than the other syntax I tried, but it still doesn't fix the core problem. My root Ape installs have issues with adding a local role, as then the default roles get axed. If you add this fix then Zope re-adds Owner (and Authenticated, as you need to duplicate the fix a couple lines lower) during the start-up, but not Manager - and they are not really added, but sort of hacked in by the start-up code. Shouldn't Ape be somehow dealing with this exact situation anyways, or is there just something wrong with my installs? Thanks again for the help, Tim Shane Hathaway wrote:

I think a quick fix is to make the above line read:
app.__ac_roles__ = tuple(app.__ac_roles__) + ('Owner',)
To really fix this, Ape needs to be more careful to set __ac_roles__ as tuples.
