Hey Erik, I read you're post and although I can't in solving your questions (although i wish i could) I was hopeing you could help me sort out my installation issues with 2.5.0 binary.
I'm new to Zope and could really use a little help installing. I'm on a Solaris Box.
I've Downloaded Zope-2.5.0-solaris-2.6-sparc ./install -u root
all looks good
Next I try to ./start -u root All goes well until the install seems to get hung up on Unix socket: /path to Zope-2.5.0/var/pcgi
I don't think that it is hung. You ran start but didn't throw it in the background, so your shell will sit there waiting for output from the start command. Did you see some messages about it listening on port 8080 for the web server and 8021 for the ftp server before that Unix socket message? If so, then you're in business.
When I try to ./start (with no other options)
I get: File /path to Zope/zy.py, line 688, in? IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/path to Zope/var/Z2.pid'
I imagine this time the error comes from not starting as root. That and the fact that this file does not seem t be in the "var" folder.
When you started it as root the first time, the ownership of the files in <ZopeInstall>/var were changed to the root user. Non-root users will now be unable to write to files like Data.fs and Z2.pid. chown those files to the user you'll be running Zope as.
basically i can't bet to mymachine.com:8080/manage So I haven't got this up and running yet.
I would greatly appreciate any Advice on this.
Thank you in Advance, jESSE
Good luck, Erik
