Hello zope.org, i'm trying to install zope/plone on a Red Hat 9.0 system, but the system never manages to start up. it shows the initial page (sometimes with the Zope graphic, sometimes without), but never manages to fully load the /manage pages. on the console, i see the following when i start up (notice how the "ZServer PCGI Server started" line fails to appear): [zope@redhatdev Zope-2.6.2-src]$ ./start -w 8081 -D ------ 2003-12-10T11:47:51 INFO(0) zdaemon Started subprocess: pid 7132 ------ 2003-12-10T11:47:52 INFO(0) ZODB Opening database for mounting: '145055912_1071084405.117667' ------ 2003-12-10T11:47:52 INFO(0) ZODB Mounted database '145055912_1071084405.117667' at /temp_folder ------ 2003-12-10T11:47:52 INFO(0) ZServer HTTP server started at Wed Dec 10 11:47:52 2003 Hostname: redhatdev Port: 8081 ------ 2003-12-10T11:47:52 INFO(0) ZServer FTP server started at Wed Dec 10 11:47:52 2003 Hostname: redhatdev Port: 8021 i initially tried to install the zope binary, but this didn't work so i tried the source install. i used the following install sequence (taken from http://zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/InstallingZope.stx): # prep install location

mkdir /usr/local/zope chown -R zope zope chgrp -R web zope chmod -R 775 zope cd /usr/local/zope

# install python 2.1.3

mkdir /usr/local/zope/python-2.1.3 wget http://python.org/ftp/python/2.1.3/Python-2.1.3.tgz tar xzvf Python-2.1.3.tgz cd Python-2.1.3 ./configure --prefix /usr/local/zope/python-2.1.3 configure make make install

# install zope 2.6.2

cd /usr/local/zope wget http://zope.org/Products/Zope/2.6.2/Zope-2.6.2-src.tgz tar xzvf Zope-2.6.2-src.tgz cd Zope-2.6.2-src /usr/local/zope/python-2.1.3/bin/python wo_pcgi.py
