Greetings Fellow Zopers, I've been using Zope-1.9.0b2 on a linux machine without any problems, but when I tried to upgrade to Zope-1.9.0b3, I ran into trouble: Zope refuses to start up. The sequence of commands I've followed is: cd /usr/local/dc gzip -d </home/root2/Zope-1.9.0b3-linux2-x86.tar.gz | tar xvof - rename the directory 'Zope-1.9.0b3' to 'Zope' cd Zope ./install -srcflagg:******** -u www -g www ./start I was able to reinstall Zope-1.9.0b2, so my site is still running but I'm anxious to start to use the database methods. Thanks for any help you can give, Bob
