Im absolute zope beginner and tried to solve my probability Easy-Problem by googling and looking in the forums, but it seems much confusing to me. There are informations to use user nobody and sticky bits, but on the other site I found informations such: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/InstallingZope.s... Note: for Zope 2.7, none of this permission-sticky-bit-setting nonsense is necessary. Instead, just set the effective-user parameter to an existing (nonroot) username in the zope.conf file and start Zope as root. All files including log and pid files will be written as the lesser-privileged user. If I try to make an instance of Zope 2.7.3 with /opt/Zope-2.7/bin/mkzopeinstance.py I don't see an error (is there a logfile?) but if I start the Zope-instance I get the following error. Can someone help me? I use Python 2.3.4 After completing mkzopeinstance there are no files in the VAR-directory. Is this correct? When will the data.fs build? p15142999:/usr/local/myzope/bin # ./zopectl fg export EVENT_LOG_FILE EVENT_LOG_FILE= /usr/local/myzope/bin/runzope ------ 2004-12-21T22:37:43 INFO(0) ZServer HTTP server started at Tue Dec 21 22:37:43 2004 Hostname: p15142999.pureserver.info Port: 8080 ------ 2004-12-21T22:37:43 INFO(0) ZServer FTP server started at Tue Dec 21 22:37:43 2004 Hostname: p15142999 Port: 8021 ------ 2004-12-21T22:37:43 INFO(0) Zope Set effective user to "uwc" Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/run.py", line 50, in ? run() File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/run.py", line 19, in run start_zope(opts.configroot) File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/__init__.py", line 51, in start_zope starter.startZope() File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/__init__.py", line 230, in startZope Zope.startup() File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py", line 47, in startup _startup() File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/Zope/App/startup.py", line 57, in startup DB = configuration.dbtab.getDatabase('/', is_root=1) File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/DBTab/DBTab.py", line 96, in getDatabase db = self._createDatabase(name, is_root) File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/DBTab/DBTab.py", line 113, in _createDatabase db = factory.open() File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/datatypes.py", line 172, in open DB = self.createDB() File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/datatypes.py", line 169, in createDB return ZODBDatabase.open(self) File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/ZODB/config.py", line 97, in open return ZODB.DB(section.storage.open(), File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/ZODB/config.py", line 128, in open quota=self.config.quota) File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/ZODB/FileStorage.py", line 232, in __init__ self._lock_file = LockFile(file_name + '.lock') File "/opt/Zope-2.7/lib/python/ZODB/lock_file.py", line 60, in __init__ self._fp = open(path, 'w+') IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/myzope/var/Data.fs.lock' TIA Regards Uwe -- +++ Sparen Sie mit GMX DSL +++ http://www.gmx.net/de/go/dsl AKTION f�r Wechsler: DSL-Tarife ab 3,99 EUR/Monat + Startguthaben
