Hello: Newbie here to Zope. I recently installed Zope on Debian (Sarge), and from the get go there were some issues. Namely the 'default' setup was missing, so I couldn't get it started. A little reading of the docs helped get that sorted. Now, I can't get into my Management interface. I have set the password, both my using the 'zopectl -a access' switch, and by issuing 'python zpasswd.py access'. However no dice, still can't login with the pwd/log setup with either/or methods above. Any suggestions? Thank-you. -- Stephen

To follow-up, Why can't I change the pwd/log? Is there any way around this, other than to delete the whole install and attempt it again?

Usually, you place the "access" (or related) file at a place where Zope does not look at (because most prepacked Zope version look at different places). Probably the easiest way is to install Zope from sources and generate it yourself (provided you have a C development system and the python-dev package installed). Then, you know precisely what is expected where. An alternative would be to look for documentation of the peculiarities of your Zope package. -- Dieter

Ok managed to get this fixed -- and for the archives: The Debian scripts didn't automate the update correctly IMHO. One of those "rare" things, normally Debian maintainers are better. Once I removed Zope, 'aptitude purge zope', I used the find command 'find / -iname "zope" -print', to locate all instances of Zope remaining behind, (obviously a config file from the older version Zope was still hanging around, preventing the new pwd/log from being used) and deleted all of them. Then I installed the upgraded version of Zope again, assigned an admin pwd/log -- and it worked. -- Stephen
