hello - can anyone offer some advice on this error message, from a new installation of Zope-2.2.5 on YellowDog Linux 2.3 ppc ? (stderr.txt pasted below) the Zope server was compiled from source, by root, and built in /usr/local/Zope-2.2.5 I'm new to Linux, but is it saying that the permissions on this directory are set wrongly ? contacting http://localhost:8080 shows that the server hasn't started and I got the same message when I tried the Mac OS X binaries (in OS 10.1.5) to try and find out what was going wrong TIA cheers Richard ------ 2002-10-09T13:57:38 INFO(0) ZServer HTTP server started at Wed Oct 9 14:57:38 2002 Hostname: localhost.localdomain Port: 8080 ------ 2002-10-09T13:57:38 INFO(0) ZServer FTP server started at Wed Oct 9 14:57:38 2002 Hostname: localhost.localdomain Port: 8021 ------ 2002-10-09T13:57:38 INFO(0) ZServer Monitor Server (V1.8.4.1) started on port 8099 Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/local/Zope-2.2.5-src/z2.py", line 710, in ? pf = open(PID_FILE, 'w') IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/Zope-2.2.5-src/var/Z2.pid'
