Eddie, I seems from your traceback that the user you are using to _run_ your Zope process does not have permission to read some (or all) of the Zope files from the filesystem:

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/lib/python/App/manage.dtml'

You need to make sure that either you run Zope as the same user you used to install it, or change the filesystem permissions so that the user you are using has read access to all of the Zope files (and write access to the /var directory and any files in the /var directory). Hope this helps! Brian Lloyd brian@digicool.com Software Engineer 540.371.6909 Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com

I downloaded Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86.tgz. I unpacked it in /usr/local/bin, then ./install, then ./start. Please see below and advise.

I tried logging in several times. I even used python zpasswd.py access and picked a real simple password and cleartext. No joy.

You can change the superuser name and password with the zpasswd script. To find out more, type:

/usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/bin/python zpasswd.py

chmod 0600 /usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/access chmod 0711 /usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/var -------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- setting dir permissions -------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- creating default database chmod 0600 /usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/var/Data.fs -------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- Writing the pcgi resource file (ie cgi script), /usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/Zope.cgi chmod 0755 /usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/Zope.cgi -------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- Creating start script, start chmod 0711 /usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/start -------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- Creating stop script, stop chmod 0711 /usr/local/bin/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/stop -------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------
