As far as I can find there is no Z2.pid file in the var directory and I have also used chmod on the directory to try and correct any permssion problems. Mat.
User nobody needs write permission to the var directory (as you started the process as root). This from Michel If you run Zope as root, it will turn itself into 'nobody'. This is a security feature many programs do. Run Zope as a user other than root and make sure that user has permission to write in the var directory. I run my Zopes as a non-privileged user and it all works fine...
